Radio, possibly lasers. Not sure about that last but would not put it past the military and alphabet soup agencies. Seems to me that a laser could be aimed exactly at a satellite and so there would be no need to broadcast radio which other nations might be able to pick up.

How many satellites does NASA have in space?
9 one is named after the man who launched it Noah dish
What do scientists do in NASA?
Scientists at NASA do various things. The tasks are all space or physics related. NASA is US's Space Program. They launched satellites like Swift,skylab ect. NASA scientists test zero G, jet propulsion, sample space rocks ect. Space Shuttles and Mars Rovers are one of NASA's achievements.
What instruments are used to send pictures from outer space to earth?
Pictures are sent to earth from outer space through the Hubble Telescope and cameras on satellites. The satellites then send the images to NASA computers.
What are 3 tasks a space shuttle can perform?
NASA has used space shuttles to perform many important tasks. These include taking satellites into orbit, repairing damaged satellites, and carrying astronauts and equipment to and from space stations.
Is the NASA International Space Station still being used?
Yes, its still being used for the many satellites out today.

Did NASA ever reach Saturn?
No. But the Agency has launched several space probes that did, and returned photographs of the planet, its satellites, and its ring system.
What kind of metal does NASA use?
Most satellites and space vehicles are made from an aluminum or titanium alloy, or composite material, and then coated or anodized to prevent oxidation in space.
What is the NASA program?
The NASA programs is a programs used to make scientific discoveries about space and about all the galaxies for future and present references. The NASA space program was thought of and created by President Eisenhower because he thought that the U.S. needed a space program to create satellites after Russia created and launched the first human-made satellite
Why are hurricanes predictable?
In space, there are satellites that take pictures of the weather all around the world. Then they send the photos back to NASA. At NASA, the scientists study the pictures and they can figure out if a storm is coming up.
Why did NASA abandon the Apollo program for the Space Shuttle which has a maximum altitude of 600 miles?
The goals of NASA shifted from lunar exploration to low earth orbit where the space shuttles operate. Instead of exploring the moon, NASA changed its focus to launching commercial and military satellites, humans living long term in space initially with Skylab and on to construction of the international space station.
What navigation technologies were developed through space programs begun at NASA?
new navigation technologies for satellites, interplanetary probes, lunar landing and "roving" vehicles, and, in the 1980s, the space shuttle.
What is the list of the major satellites gone up into space?
There are about 2465 satellites orbiting the earth, way too many to list. Check out the cool site to see them all and look them up from NASA in the link below.
