You may be familiar with hibiscus, known as âsour teaâ in Iran, a delicious and refreshing summertime drink. Originally from Angola, hibiscus is now cultivated throughout tropical and subtropical regions, especially in Sudan, Egypt, Thailand, Mexico, and China.
High Earth Orbit. When a satellite reaches exactly 42,164 kilometers from the center of the Earth (about 36,000 kilometers from Earthâs surface), it enters a sort of âsweet spotâ in which its orbit matches Earthâs rotation.his special, high Earth orbit is called geosynchronous. A satellite in a circular geosynchronous orbit directly over the equator (eccentricity and inclination at zero) will have a geostationary orbit that does not move at all relative to the ground.
32. Suppose a satellite is in low earth orbit, that is, in a circular orbit at a height of 200 km., so the radius of the circle is 6600 km., say. We want to raise it to a circular orbit of twice that radius (so it will now be going in a circle at a height of 6800 km above the earths surface.)
