An object in such an orbit has an orbital period equal to the Earth's rotational period, one sidereal day, and so to ground observers it appears motionless, in a fixed position in the sky. Geostationary satellites are launched via a temporary orbit, and placed in a slot above a particular point on the Earth's surface.
