Satellite pictures of Earth are taken by a camera mounted on a satellite in orbit, high above Earth's atmosphere. They are transmitted wirelessly over satellite signals, much like satellite TV.

A satellite is a heavenly body/object revolving earth. Earth has one permanent 'satellite' i.e. moon. Every satellite launched by man is a temporary satellite.

Technically, the Earth and any satellite both circle their mutual center of mass. Just like the balancing of an adult and a child on a see-saw, since the earth's mass is several times the mass of the satellite, their common center of mass is closer to the earth's center than it is to the satellite. Even in the case of the moon, the pair's common center of mass is inside the earth. In the case of any man-made artificial satellite, the mass ratio is several gazillion, and the common center of mass can't be more than a hair's breadth from the earth's center. So for any satellite, including the moon, it looks exactly as if the satellite is circling the earth.

We have assigned names of things obviously. Planet is the name for those which goes around the sun. And satellite is the one which goes around the planet. So earth is a planet and not considered as satellite. Moon is the natural satellite to our earth.

The faster satellite appears to overtake another satellite when observed from Earth. This is because the faster satellite covers a greater distance in the same amount of time, causing it to catch up to and pass the slower satellite.
