    This document discusses the history and types of satellites. It begins by defining satellites and providing examples of natural and artificial satellites. It then describes five main types of satellites: 1) communications satellites, 2) navigation satellites, 3) weather satellites, 4) military satellites, and 5) scientific satellites. Key early satellites are identified for each type. The document focuses on the development of communications satellites, providing details on early experimental satellites from the 1950s-1960s and the introduction of commercial satellites through Intelsat in the 1960s. It concludes with brief discussions of weather satellites and space exploration.
