What are the main differences between geostationary orbit and polar orbit?

A polar orbit is an Orbit in which a Satellite passes above or nearly above both of the Geographical poles of the body (usually a planet such as the Earth, but possibly another body such as the Sun being orbited on each revolution. It therefore has an Inclination of (or very close to) 90 degrees to the Equator. Except in the special case of a polar Geosynchronous orbit, a satellite in a polar orbit will pass over the equator at a different Longitude on each of its orbits.A geostationary orbit (GEO) is a circular orbit directly above the Earth's Equator From the ground, a geostationary object appears motionless in the sky and is therefore the Orbit of most interest to operators of Communication Satellites. Their orbital periods (time taken to revolve around earth) is exactly the same as the planet's (such as Earth's) rotational period. The Geosynchronous orbit is approximately 36,000 km above Earth's surface.geostionary satellites are positioned at an exact height above the earth, at this height they orbit the earth at the same speed at which the earth rotates on its axis whereas polar satellites have a much lower orbit, orbiting the earth quite quickly, scanning different areas of the earth at fairly infrequent periods.


What is a photography taken from above the earth called?

Earthrise is the name given to a photograph of the Earth taken by astronaut ... Rowell called it "the most influential environmental photograph ever taken


How do you calculate a area covered by a camera lens?

You can't. But I think when the taken photo is on the computer, you can do something about it.


What type of orbit does WISE have?

Is the space station beyond the gravitational pull of the earth?

No. The space station is in a stable orbit around the earth. Eventually, the orbit will decay and the station will begin falling toward the earth if steps are not taken to reestablish the stable orbit.

Why is a year longer or shorter on Venus then on Earth?

A year is shorter on Venus than on Earth. A year is the time taken for a planet to orbit the Sun. Venus has a smaller orbit and a higher orbital speed.
