Question 78

What type of satellite appears to stay in one position in the sky?

  1. HEO
  2. GeostationaryBonne réponse
  3. Geomagnetic
  4. LEO

Explication

A geostationary satellite orbits above the equator with a period equal to one rotation of the Earth, so from the ground it appears to hang at a fixed point in the sky and a station can use a fixed antenna. Low Earth and highly elliptical orbit satellites move across the sky and must be tracked.
