Does Orbitium currently track GEO satellites?
Not yet as a full catalog. GEO pages are part of the programmatic orbit foundation for future satellite expansion.
GEO
Geostationary Orbit
Geostationary orbit is an equatorial orbit where a spacecraft appears to remain over the same longitude on Earth, making it useful for communications and weather monitoring.

FAQ
Why is GEO useful?
A GEO satellite appears nearly fixed in the sky from the ground, which is useful for antennas, broadcast coverage, and weather observations.
Is GEO the same as low Earth orbit?
No. GEO is much farther from Earth than LEO and serves different operational use cases.
