If its orbit is tilted relative to the equator,it will move over different parts of the earth.
A geostationary satellite appears to stand still to a viewer anywhere on the earth, not just on the equator.
That's a "geostationary" satellite. It's roughly 22,000 miles above the equator, in a circular orbit.
geosynchronous orbit. The below is not completely accurate but close enough to state the concept and basic practice: A ring of spots above the equator where you can park your satellite and it will stay above the same spot. For a more accurate understanding reading on this subject and the related Lagrange orbits will be best.
That's a 'geosynchronous' orbit. If it also happens to be over the equator, so that the satellite appears to stay at the same point in the sky, then it's a 'geostationary' orbit.
Most countries, companies, try to launch as close to the equator as possible so that the escape velocity (fuel useage) can be minimized. Its cheaper to launch near the equator.
A geostationary satellite must orbit in the plane of the equator to be stationary. If launched from the equator it is already in that plane and only needs enough fuel to lift it and inject it into the right orbit. If launched from another point it will need extra fuel for maneuvering from its initial orbital plane into the equatorial plane. This gets worse with greater initial orbital inclination.
Rockets are launched as close to the equator as possible to launch satellites most economically by taking full advantage of the Earth's rotational velocity, which is about 1000 miles per hour at the equator and slower at all higher latitudes. This is 1000 miles per hour less speed that the rocket needs to provide and a significant savings in rocket fuel. However, other rockets are not launched from the equator as there is no similar advantage (e.g. rockets launching polar orbiting satellites or military warheads can be launched from anyplace and going to the equator to launch them would be an unnecessary expense with many disadvantages).
If its orbit is tilted relative to the equator,it will move over different parts of the earth.
Satellites are placed into orbit by rockets. They are designed to fit into the bus that they are placed on. Depending on the location they be launched form locations near the equator or Molniya orbits.
Since, the earth revolves from west to east so when the rocket is launched from west to east the relative velocity of rocket becomes velocity of rocket + velocity of earth. Thus, velocity of rocket increases which helps ti to rise without much consumption of fuel.
A geostationary satellite appears to stand still to a viewer anywhere on the earth, not just on the equator.
All satellites pass the equator. Twice every orbit.
A geosynchronous satellite will never be over California; it will be over the equator. But it will be within view of California, which is the important thing. It doesn't really matter where it is launched from; by careful adjustment of the speed of the spacecraft, the controllers can get it to any spot in geo-synch.
