HOLT SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
your ScienceLog.
• The Soviet Union launched the first Earth-orbiting satellite in 1957. The first United
States satellite went up in 1958.
• Low Earth orbits (LEOs) are located a few hundred kilometers above the Earth’s surface.
Satellites in geosynchronous orbits (GEOs) have an orbit period of 24 hours and remain
over one spot.
• Satellite programs are used for weather observations, communications, mapping the
Earth, and tracking ocean currents, crop growth, and urban development.
• One great legacy of the satellite program has been an increase in our awareness of the
Earth’s fragile environment.

INTERPRETING GRAPHICS
CHAPTER 22
The map on page 621 of your text book was made using satellite data. It indicates the
different amounts of chlorophyll in the ocean. Chlorophyll, in turn, identifies the presence of marine plankton. The blues and purples show the smallest amount of chlorophyll,
and the reds and oranges show the most. Examine the map, and answer the questions
that follow.
26. At which location, A or B, are more plankton concentrated?
27. What do you conclude about the conditions in which plankton prefer to live?

Exploring Space
USING VOCABULARY
For each pair of terms, explain the difference in their meaning:
1. geosynchronous orbit/low Earth orbit Geosynchronous orbit (GEO) is 35,862 km above the
Earth’s surface. GEO enables satellites to orbit at a speed that matches the Earth’s rotation. Low
Earth orbit (LEO) is a few hundred kilometers above the Earth’s surface. To remain in LEO, satellites
must travel much faster than the Earth rotates.
2. space probe/space shuttle A space probe is a vehicle that carries scientific instruments to
planets or to other bodies in space. It does not carry people. A space shuttle is a reusable vehicle
that takes off like a rocket and lands like an airplane. It carries people and does not travel farther
3. artificial satellite/moon An artificial satellite is any human-made object placed in orbit around a
body in space. A moon is a natural satellite of a planet.

Short Answer
Write one or two sentences to answer the following questions:
16. Describe how Newton’s third law of motion relates to the movement of rockets.
Answers will vary. Sample answer: Newton’s third law states that for every action, there is an equal
reaction in the opposite direction. A rocket’s combustion chamber contains gases that are under
extreme pressure. As the gases escape through the rocket nozzle, the rocket reacts by moving in
the opposite direction.
Answers will vary. Sample answer: One disadvantage of LEO is that a satellite cannot maintain
constant communication with a ground station because it is orbiting faster than the Earth rotates.
18. Why did the United States develop the space shuttle?
Answers will vary. Sample answer: One reason the United States developed the space shuttle is
that it is reusable.
19. During which period were spy satellites first used?
Spy satellites were first used during the Cold War.

CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING
21. What is the difference between speed and velocity?
Speed is a measure of how fast an object travels. Velocity is the speed and direction an object
travels.
22. Why must rockets that travel in outer space carry oxygen with them?
Rockets must carry oxygen with them because there is little or no oxygen in the Earth’s upper
atmosphere or in outer space. Without oxygen, rocket fuel cannot burn.
23. How will data from the space probes help us to understand the Earth’s environment?
Answers will vary. Sample answer: Space probes enable us to study the atmosphere and surface
of other bodies in the solar system. Scientists use this data to understand changes in the Earth’s

24. Why was it necessary for several nations to work together to create the ISS?
Sample answer: Building the ISS together gives different countries a common goal and encourages international cooperation. In addition, the cost of the ISS will be shared by many countries.
