Now we can judge whether he was right or not. The idea of geosynchronous satellites is to find an orbit over the equator in which the satellite revolves around the earth at the same rate that the ...

Northrop Grumman has written a new line in the history books, the company's Mission Extension Vehicle 1 (MEV-1) executing the ...

Relativistic electrons in the outer Van Allen belt wreak havoc with satellites in geosynchronous orbit, but how they reach such high energies has been unclear. New data identify gyro-resonant wave ...

American space company Northrop Grumman announced it has performed the first undocking between two commercial spacecraft in the geosynchronous earth orbit ...

This robotics suite will benefit satellites placed in geosynchronous orbit roughly 22,000 miles (35,405 km) above Earth. Satellites in this orbit are the backbone of modern society. They play ...

And while that’s true, it’s true only for low Earth orbit satellites such as the ISS. If you want to reach a satellite in geosynchronous orbit it’ll take a little more effort, and this dual ...

today announced Jackal—its Autonomous Orbital Vehicle (AOV)—for operations in geosynchronous orbit (GEO) and Cislunar space. As in every other domain, conflict imposes hard requirements that ...
