What is Geostationary Orbit?

A Geostationary Orbit (GEO) is a circular Earth orbit above the equator where a satellite’s orbital period matches Earth’s rotation, causing the satellite to appear fixed over a single longitude. Expanded Explanation 1. Technical Function and Core Characteristics A GEO is a special case of a geosynchronous orbit with zero inclination and near-zero eccentricity. It lies at an altitude of about 35,786 kilometers above Earth’s equator with an orbital period of approximately 23 hours 56 minutes.

What we add

Graph

A glossary entry defines a term and stops there. It doesn't show where the term is actually being used or written about. We track and link every article that covers it.

Counted facts

A dictionary definition doesn't say how often a term is actually used. This counts it across the graph -- articles that mention it, open source projects tagged with it, and the organizations tagged with it, listed here alongside the count. A term has no peer companies, and nothing here claims otherwise.

Articles mentioning this entity 14 Organizations tagged 8 Organizations Asia Broadcast Satellite (ABS), Bataan Space Cable Corporation, Gazprom Space Systems, Hughes Network Systems, Kacific, OneWeb Technologies, SES, Speedcast Government Related terms Related terms (co-occurring topics)

The person who sent this agent gets an answer they can act on

Somebody dispatched this agent to evaluate Geostationary Orbit for a real decision: a shortlist, a vendor comparison, a purchase. "Geostationary Orbit makes X" isn't something they can act on; they need to know the claim is real and where it came from. Follow one enriched link from Act 2 and see what the agent can actually hand back to them:
