ARRL Amateur Radio Quiz: Here It Comes, Here It Is, There It Goes!

Space News

We'll take satellite technology for the sheer fun of it! Let's do things backwards -- retrograde, as they say down at Kennedy Space Center -- as the questions become the answers. Or are they still questions and the answers are the questions? Confounding, isn't it? Not as confounding as the quiz, though. Ready? 10, 9, 8...

1. Perigee
a) Closest approach of a satellite to Earth
b) Farthest distance of a satellite from Earth
c) Average distance of a satellite from Earth
d) A failed launch

2. Mode
a) Orientation of orbit with respect to Earth's orbit
b) Angle between the satellite and the Sun
