satelliit Maa ekvaatori kohal paikneval ringikujulisel orbiidil, mis jääb Maa pinna (ekvaatori) teatud punkti suhtes paigale
a type of geosynchronous satellite that maintains a zero inclination angle and zero eccentricity, allowing it to remain motionless above a specific point on the equator
Geostationary satellites are launched via a temporary orbit, and then placed in a "slot" above a particular point on the Earth's surface. Modern retired geostationary satellites are placed in a higher graveyard orbit to avoid collisions.
ESA’s European Data Relay System (EDRS) programme consists of a constellation of GEO satellites that relay information and data between non-GEO satellites, spacecraft and ground stations that are otherwise unable to permanently transmit or receive data.
