The analysis

The claim states that satellites can function as radiometers to measure electromagnetic radiation. Papers [2], [6], and [9] all explicitly discuss satellite-borne radiometers (such as infrared and microwave radiometers) measuring electromagnetic radiation (such as brightness temperatures, thermal emissions, and solar-induced fluorescence) from space. Therefore, the evidence strongly supports the claim, yielding a verdict of SUPPORTED.
