Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The satellite imaging system described in the question is considered active because it emits its own electromagnetic energy to gather information about the surface, as opposed to relying solely on natural sources of radiation (which would make it passive). It is not photographic or holographic, as these terms refer to different types of imaging technologies.
