👉 In geophysics, a geosynchronous orbit is an artificial satellite that orbits around the Earth at a constant altitude. This is achieved by placing the satellite on a high orbit (geosynchronous orbit) and maintaining its position relative to the Earth's surface. Geosynchronous satellites are used for various purposes such as providing weather forecasting, navigation, and communication services. In geophysics, a geosyncline is a type of geologic structure that is characterized by the presence of an ob
