Question

What is geo- stationary sattlite? Is it same as synchronous satellite?
And what is the height of a geo- stationary sattlite

Answer 1

A geostationary satellite is an earth-orbiting satellite, placed at an altitude of approximately 35,800 kilometers (22,300 miles) directly over the equator, that revolves in the same direction the earth rotates (west to east). At this altitude, one orbit takes 24 hours, the same length of time as the earth requires to rotate once on its axis. The term geostationary comes from the fact that such a satellite appears nearly stationary in the sky as seen by a ground-based observer. BGAN, the new global mobile communications network, uses geostationary satellites.

Answer 2

Geo Stationary satellites are the satellites that revolve around the earth at a height of 36000 km and covers one revolution with a time period of 24 hrs . it looks stationary from the earth. it goes from east to west or west to east

eg: INSAT group of satellite
