سانچہ:Comparison satellite navigation orbits

آزاد دائرۃ المعارف، ویکیپیڈیا سے
Comparison of geostationary, GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Compass (MEO), International Space Station, Hubble Space Telescope, Iridium constellation and graveyard orbits, with the Van Allen radiation belts and the Earth to scale.[ا] The Moon's orbit is around 9 times larger than geostationary orbit.[ب] (In the SVG file, hover over an orbit or its label to highlight it; click to load its article.)

  1. Orbital periods and speeds are calculated using the relations 4π²R³ = T²GM and V²R = GM, where R = radius of orbit in metres, T = orbital period in seconds, V = orbital speed in m/s, G = gravitational constant ≈ 6.673 × 10-11 Nm²/kg², M = mass of Earth ≈ 5.98 × 1024 kg.
  2. Approximately 8.6 times (in radius and length) when the moon is nearest (363 104 km ÷ 42 164 km) to 9.6 times when the moon is farthest (405 696 km ÷ 42 164 km).
