말뭉치

1. The term ‘geocentric orbit’ is used to describe the orbit of any object around the Earth.
2. This is called the low Earth orbit (LEO).
3. Anything orbiting higher than the LEO is categorized as a medium Earth orbit (MEO).
4. A geosynchronous orbit is a high Earth orbit that allows satellites to match Earth's rotation.
5. Satellites are designed to orbit Earth in one of three basic orbits defined by their distance from the planet: low Earth orbit, medium Earth orbit or high Earth orbit.
6. So a satellite at low Earth orbit — such as the International Space Station, at roughly 250 miles (400 km) — will move over the surface, seeing different regions at different times of day.
7. Those at medium Earth orbit (between about 2,000 and 35,780 km, or 1,242 and 22,232 miles) move more slowly, allowing for more detailed studies of a region.
8. Many weather and some communications satellites tend to have a high Earth orbit, farthest away from the surface.
9. Satellites that orbit in a medium (mid) Earth orbit include navigation and specialty satellites, designed to monitor a particular region.
10. This special, high Earth orbit is called geosynchronous.
11. Closer to the Earth, satellites in a medium Earth orbit move more quickly.
12. “Overall, unfortunately, we still have quite a bit to do in terms of the way we use our spacecraft in low-Earth orbit,” Lemmens added.
13. As known, artificial satellites are positioned in LEO or geocentric orbit using geocentric coordinate systems.
14. Further evidence was obtained when 2006 RH120 was temporarily captured into a geocentric orbit from July 2006 to July 2007.
15. A geocentric orbit or Earth orbit involves any object orbiting the Earth, such as the Moon or artificial satellites.
16. Such fragmentations produce fragment clouds that interfere with the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) environment and pose a threat to operational satellites.
17. A geocentric orbit involves any object orbiting the Earth, such as the Moon or artificial satellites.
18. For orbits around Earth, see Geocentric orbit .
19. A low Earth orbit (LEO) is, as the name suggests, an orbit that is relatively close to Earth’s surface.
20. (MEO) Medium Earth orbit comprises a wide range of orbits anywhere between LEO and GEO.
