Where are the satellites?
satellites are located 37,000 km above the earth's equator.
How many satellites are there and how high do they orbit?
There are currently 32 GPS satellites Orbiting earth at 20,000Kms above sea level There are also 24 GLONASS satellites (The russian version of a GPS satellite) Which many high end GPS receivers will use in conjunction with the standard GPS satellites. These orbit a little lower than GPS at arond 19,000Kms above sea level. There are 4 Galileo Satellites, which are currently un used, but are the start of the European satellite constealltion which is a work in progress. They orbit at 24,000Kms above sea level. On top of all that, there are 10 Chinese navigation satellites called COMPASS orbiting in an orbit above China and Asia. They orbit at around 21,000 Kms above sea level.

Why are all geostationary satellites the same distance above the earth?

How high are the sky broadcast satellites?
22,340 miles above the equator.
What layer of the atmosphere is satellites located?
If they are in the atmosphere (low earth orbit), satellites are in the ionosphere. If they are in higher orbits, satellites are considered to be outside the atmosphere.
Are the landsat satellites positioned 700 kilometres above the ground?
Closer to 900km.
What is isochronous satellites?
An isochronous satellite is one that orbits the earth in one day. So it orbits the earth as the same speed as the earth rotates. Most satellites that are isochronous are infact geostationary satellites as they also stay in the same position above the earth. However these satellites occupy a very specific orbit above the equator. It is possible to have isochronous satellites that aren't geostationary however getting them to remain in orbit would prove difficult.
Is china above or below the equator?
North; above, by nineteen degrees.
Is the geosynchronous satellites above the equator is follow an elliptical orbit?
All satellites follow an elliptical orbit - they are darn close to circular, but even a circle is an ellipse.
What are placed into orbit above the equator and used to predict weather?
Geostationary satellites.Geostationary satellites.
Do satellites go into the mesosphere?
No, satellite orbits are above the mesosphere in the thermosphere, which extends from about 100 to 600 km above the Earth's surface.
