its gravitationally bound to the earth,i.e it orbits earth.just like the moon. it orbits once every 90mins or so
>
In a circle and unpowered
(At stable orbit) Gravity = Centripetal force
Essentially, for any given orbital radius, only one velocity will keep it in stable orbit.
1. Select orbit radius (r)
2. Calculate required velocity (v) from: v = square root (G * m) / r
(G = Newtons gravitational constant, m = earths mass)
3. Calculate (sidereal) orbit time from (2 * pi * r) / v
