Summary Of: Geostationary orbit

geostationary orbit is independent of the mass of the satellite... While a geostationary orbit should hold a satellite in fixed position above the equator... Satellites in geostationary orbit must all occupy a single ring above the equator... the geostationary orbit is independent of the satellite... Graphical derivation of the geostationary orbit radius for the Earth...
