2、The last principle is visualization. Research has shown striking improvements in many types of memory tasks when people are asked to visualize the items to be remembered.

Because any form of sound or visual information can be changed into radio waves, satellites are capable of transmitting not only television broadcasts, but telephone calls and printed materials such as books and magazines.
