COSMIC MESSAGE
About 36,000 kilometers above the Earth, satellites can orbit once every 24 hours. If they are over the equator, they appear to hang motionless in the sky, a geostationary orbit. This allows them to always communicate with the same ground station. The result is a geostationary highway of communication satellites, as shown in this composite image.
