Question

What are polar satellites in physics?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Global Geospace Science Polar satellite was a NASA science spacecraft designed to study the polar magnetosphere and aurorae. It was launched into orbit in February 1996, and continued operations until the program was terminated in April 2008. The spacecraft remains in orbit, though it is now inactive

Answer 2

Polar Satellites revolve around Earth from one pole to another. Therefore, their orbit is perpendicular to the equator of Earth. They go around Earth from North to South direction whereas Earth revolves from east to west.
