There are thousands of satellites currently in orbit, with many satellites passing in the sky overhead at any given moment.
You can receive some of them yourself with a cheap <span class="hint">SDR<span class="hint-popup"><b>S</b>oftware <b>D</b>efined <b>R</b>adio</span></span> and antenna, and with weather satellites, you can receive beautiful images of the Earth as seen from space taken by satellites in orbit, decoded in near real time.
</p>
<h2 class="section-header">Easily Receivable Satellites</h2>
<p>The simplest weather satellites to receive are:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<span class="hint">
NOAA <span class="hint-popup"><b>N</b>ational <b>O</b>ceanic and <b>A</b>tmospheric <b>A</b>dministration</span>
</span>
<span class="hint">
POES <span class="hint-popup"><b>P</b>olar <b>O</b>rbiting <b>E</b>nvironmental <b>S</b>atellites</span>
</span>
satellites: NOAA 15, NOAA 18, and NOAA 19
</li>
<li>
Russian Meteor Satellites: Meteor M2 (Meteor M2-2's LRPT was disabled because it was hit by a micrometeorite)
</li>
</ul>
<p>The simplest <span class="hint">SSTV<span class="hint-popup"><b>S</b>low <b>S</b>can <b>T</b>ele<b>V</b>ision</span></span> satellite to receive is:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<span class="hint">ISS<span class="hint-popup"><b>I</b>nternational <b>S</b>pace <b>S</b>tation</span></span> Zarya Module
</li>
</ul>
<p>The simplest amateur satellite to receive is:</p>
<ul>
<li>
SAUDISAT 1C (SO-50)
</li>
</ul>

<h2 class="section-header">Satellite Broadcasts</h2>
<p>You can easily receive these satellites yourself with a cheap <span class="hint">SDR<span class="hint-popup"><b>S</b>oftware <b>D</b>efined <b>R</b>adio</span></span> and antenna. More info on these satellites and their broadcasts can be found below.</p>
<h2>NOAA POES Satellites</h2>
<p>
These satellites pass overhead multiple times a day, but you will get more passes
the closer you get to the Earth's poles. These are the easiest satellites to receive as you can
get something in your result even if the signal is really weak. The currently
active satellites are <time>NOAA 15, NOAA 18, and NOAA 19</time>. Each of their
signals are analogue, so if you listen to the demodulated signal, you can hear
the distinct "ticks" and "beeps" of the satellite easily.
</p>
<h2>Meteor M2 Series satellites</h2>
<p>
[^ This is the NOAA text from above. This is here tempararily as a placeholder] These satellites pass overhead multiple times a day, but you will get more passes
if you live by the poles. These are the easiest satellites to receive as you can
get something in your result even if the signal is really weak. The currently
active satellites are <time>NOAA 15, NOAA 18, and NOAA 19</time>. Each of their
signals are analogue, so if you listen to the demodulated signal, you can hear
the distinct "ticks" and "beeps" of the satellite easily.
