Geostationary orbits are circular orbits located approximately 35,786 kilometers above the Earth's equator, where a satellite's orbital period matches the Earth's rotation period of about 24 hours. This allows the satellite to remain fixed over a specific point on the Earth's surface, providing consistent communication or observation capabilities. Key features include a constant position relative to the Earth, minimal relative motion, and coverage of a large area of the planet, making them ideal for telecommunications and weather monitoring. Additionally, the orbit must be inclined at zero degrees to maintain this stationary position.

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.
Where is the hubble space telescope located now?
Impossible to answer !... The Hubble Space Telescope is not located at a fixed point (geo-stationary orbit). It orbits the earth once every 95 minutes (approx) - at an inclination of 28.5 degrees. Therefore - although its position relative to the equator is fixed - it travels across the visible sky.
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.
What are the types of orbits?
There are basically three types of orbits.* Sun Synchronous Orbits * Polar Orbits * Geosynchronous Orbits There are variations on these types. Visit related link below.

Are MEO HEO and GEO - elliptical orbits?
MEO (Medium Earth Orbit), HEO (High Earth Orbit), and GEO (Geostationary Orbit) are all circular orbits. Each of these orbits have specific altitudes and characteristics that make them ideal for different types of satellites and missions.

What happens when any object is dropped from a geo stationary satellite?
it revolves in the same orbit
Are G.P.S and Geo-stationary satellites are different?
Yes, GPS and GeoStationary satellites are two different things.

How far must a geostationary communication satellite orbit?
Geo-stationary communication satellites are 35,768 Km far from earth surface at an equatorial latitiude.
How does satellites avoid collision?
The vast majority of satellites are in geo-stationary orbits. This means, they travel around the Earth at the same speed that the Earth rotates - making them appear in the same place. One example is the GPS satellite network. Other satellites that actually orbit around the Earth, are at a different altitude - so they would (thoretically) never collide with a stationary one. Those that are orbiting, are placed in such a way, that they also avoid each other.
