Artificial Earth Satellite refers to an unmanned spacecraft that orbits the Earth and operates in space orbit more than once. Artificial satellites are the space craft with the largest number of launches, the widest range of applications and the fastest development. The project is made of materials such as motors, gears, wooden boards, solar panels and screws. When strong sunlight shiens on the panels the panel generates current to drive the motor to rotate. *See ADDITIONAL RESOURCES above to access our Teachers Resource guide pertaining to this kit.
