    Orbital Radius of 15 Geostationary Satellites for 14 Daily Passes

    A geostationary satellite in orbit around the Earth has a period identical to that of the Earth's daily rotation; the radius of such an orbit is 4.23 \times 10^4 kilometers. A system of satellites is proposed such that 15 satellites are in orbit at the same radius and each passes over a point...
