What type of satellite orbits the earth at 22300 miles above the earth?
A satellite in a geostationary orbit orbits the Earth at around 22,300 miles above the equator. Geostationary satellites appear to be stationary in the sky relative to a fixed point on the Earth's surface, making them ideal for communication and weather monitoring.
Is international space station closer to Earth than the weather satellites and GPS satellites in miles?
It depends on which satellite you are talking about. However YES, it is closer than any geostationary weather satellite and it is closer than any GPS satellites.
Why don't launch geostationary satellite for GPS?
Because they can't provide worldwide coverage. To cover near-polar areas, inclined orbits are necessaries. Since the geostationary orbit must lay on the equatorial plane, it doesn't suit to fit GPS requirements.
What devices need satellites in geostationary orbits?
Devices such as telecommunications satellites, weather satellites, and broadcasting satellites rely on geostationary orbits to provide continuous coverage over a specific region on Earth. This allows for consistent and reliable communication, weather monitoring, and broadcasting services.
The time period of a geostationary satellite is?
If a satellite is in geosynchronous orbit, it will take the satellite 24 hours, a day, to orbit the Earth once. This is so because geosynchronous orbit is when a satellite orbit the Earth at such a time, that is is over the Earth at all times.
Which satellite used for telecommunication?
Geostationary satellite
First Indian satellite in geostationary satellite was?
Aryabhatta
Why doesnt a geostationary satellite trace a path over the surface of the earth?
A geostationary satellite does not trace a path over the surface of the earth because that is what geostationary means - the satellite is stationary over a point on the Earth.
Which is the height of a geostationary satellite from the surface is approximately?
The height of a geostationary satellite from the surface is approximately 35,786 kilometers (22,236 miles).
How far above the earth is geostationary orbit?
Geostationary satellites are in an orbit that's 22,282 mi (35,786 km) above the surface of the Earth. For more on Geostationary satellite orbits, visit http://www.idirect.net/Company/Satellite-Basics/How-Satellite-Works.aspx
Does a satellite in a geostationary orbit move across the sky from east to west?
No. A geostationary satellite appears to be stationary in the sky, which means not moving. This is a big part of the reason why it is referred to as a geo'stationary' satellite.
Why perfect geostationary satellite can not be made?
It should be possible to have the perfectly geostationary satellites. But it is not possible. Perfectly geostationary satellite can not be made. Such satellite is pulled away by other objects like moon, sun and other planets from different directions. This force changes the velocity of the satellites.
What is the main characteristic of a geostationary satellite's footprint?
its location
Which is the first geostationary satellite of India?
Aryabhata in 1975
What type of satellite do communication companies prefer?
geostationary
How can you tell if a satellite is in a geostationary orbit?
me nuh care
What type of satellite is the g.o.e.s.?
It is a geostationary operational environmental satellite, though I'm not sure what is does.
