Are satellites visible to the naked eye ?
Answers:
you can see them on clear evenings they move quite quickly and vary in brightness some can be very bright
yup. email me if you have anymore astronomy questions, hamptoninthehouse@yahoo.com
some are. if you live in a rual area you can see them flying by.
Yes, some are.
Yes, I've seen with the unaided eye. But you have be somewhere away from the city light pollution, you'll never see them from your backyard.
When I was eight I could see them with the naked eye, because they look just like a star that is slowly moving. My vision is only 20/20 with glasses now and have never noticed that since.So...Yes to your question.
The dish is the satellite no it is in space. Good telescope maybe.OR
J-Pass
. Only a few satellites are visible with the naked eye or even aided with binoculars . star). We developed J-Pass to help you view some of the most visible satellite passes You can go to this site yes you can in certain cases. Enjoy:-)
Yes you can on a clear night, they look just like a star but if you look hard enough you will see them move.Ive seen them many times.
NO - Impossible
just with your eyes. lol
Whats next, THERES PLUTO : O
Should have gone to specsavers
In Los Angeles not likely due to atmospheric pollution, but perfectly possible in west coasts of Wales, Ireland, England, Scotland, Iceland and Scandinavia.
Yes - try looking for them at night. We are in darkness but
most satellites will be in sunlight. It will be a light spot that
is moving. Nightfall is the best time.
yes. they look like a shooting star, only you cansee them for a few minutes, instead of a few tenths of a second. Do not confuse them with airplanes, though. The difference between airplanes and satellites is that airplanes will blink, where as satellites will not. I have seen lots of them, just looking at the sky for a few minutes, but I also live in the country. Rule of thumb, if u can c stars, you can c satellites. Hope that helped!
David the Vi is probably young or uneducated; As his answer reveals. I have observed man made satellites with the naked eye. You need clear skies, no light pollution such as street lights, and observation skills. A satellite will be in appearance like a star but moves very quickly across the field of vision. A star will appear to be still for long periods. A star also glitters. A planet or satellite does not. The word satellite has been hijacked to mean a man made object that orbits the Earth to provide us with information. The Moon is a satellite of the Earth, just as Phobos is a satellite of Mars. So yes they are visible.
Yes at nightime on a clear night.
sometimes they are. Depending on where they are located, on a clear night you can sometimes see them
