Because the geostationary orbit round the Earth is perturbed by gravity from the Sun and Moon. The biggest effect is to change the orbital plane of the geostationary satellite so that, after a while on station, in 24 hours it appears to move up and down slightly. For that reason communications satellites need motors and fuel to correct the orbit from time to time.
What else can I help you with?
Something in orbit appearing not to move?
Geo-stationary
What happens when any object is dropped from a geo stationary satellite?
it revolves in the same orbit
What are Geo - stationary orbit satellites?
Geo stationary satellites are man made objects sent up into space that orbit the Earth parallel with and in the plane of the equator. They are sent up into space so that their distance from the Earth and hence their orbital speed matches the speed with which the Earth rotates on its axis. This means that they maintain a constant "stationary" position over a point on the equator of the planet. This is useful for communications and earth observation purposes.
How far must a geostationary communication satellite orbit?
Geo-stationary communication satellites are 35,768 Km far from earth surface at an equatorial latitiude.
What is polar orbit and geo-stationary orbit?
A satellite in polar orbit passes over the poles.A geosynchronous orbit follows the equator and at such an altitude its orbital period is one day long and remains in the same position relative to the ground.
What is a non Geo stationary satellite?
Non Geo stationary satellite is that satellite which has different angular velocity from earth and not placed on the height of 36000 Km from the earth. If you use Geo stationary satellite than only 3 satellites are enough to cover whole world. most of satellite are geostationary and they are(most of them) active satellites too.
What is the significance of the geo orbit radius in relation to satellite communication?
The geo orbit radius is significant in satellite communication because it determines the satellite's position relative to the Earth. Satellites in geostationary orbit, which have a radius of about 22,236 miles, appear stationary from the Earth's surface. This allows for continuous communication with fixed ground stations, making them ideal for services like television broadcasting and weather monitoring.
What are the limitations involved in launching Geo stationary satellites?

What is the full form of GEO related to communications?
The full form of GEO is Geostationary Orbit. It is a special case of geo-synchronous orbit which is circular and lies in the plane of the earth's equator.
Low Earth orbit satellite period of revolution?
umm if my calculations are correct the period of a low earth orbit (LEO) is approximately 40000000000069 years. as extrapolated from Kepler's equation.
Two kinds of weather satellites?
geo stationary and polar orbiting
What is the tv satellites orbit called?
The tv satellites orbit called is a geo stationery.
