Satellites Orbits: How they work Many types of orbits, one for each way to use Satellites. Here I’m going to explain that

Satellites don’t all fly in the same way around Earth; their orbits are carefully chosen to match the mission. Look how orbits work

🛰️ IRAN'S NEW EYES IN THE SKY:

Iran had no serious satellite network. Now it does.

Via Russia: Liana recon satellites + Khayyam satellite.

Result: Iran can track US naval movements and monitor regional bases.

A destabilizing upgrade.

'The big fear is that future collisions will cause a domino effect where Earth’s orbit becomes cluttered with tiny, high-speed bits of metal. That could create a near-impenetrable layer of debris that would make space launches so dangerous it would essentially trap humans on Earth.'
