Explanation:

The correct chronological order of media technologies is satellite, cable, video, e-mail.

Firstly, satellite technology emerged in the mid-20th century and revolutionized global communication by enabling the transmission of television signals, radio broadcasts, and data across long distances.

Next, cable television followed shortly after, offering a broader array of television channels and services. By using coaxial cables, it provided high-quality signals, unlike over-the-air broadcasts.

Video technology came into play after cable TV, allowing individuals to record, store, and playback television programs or movies at their convenience. Video cassette recorders (VCRs) became a staple in homes during the 1970s and 1980s.

Lastly, email emerged in the late 20th century, transforming communication by allowing individuals to send and receive messages electronically over the internet. The rise of the internet and computer technology made email a mainstream tool for both personal and professional communication.

In conclusion, the correct chronological order is satellite, cable, video, e-mail.
