Communications around the globe are limited to line of sight because of the curvature of Earth. If we can launch a communications satellite into orbit, we can use it to transmit information to the opposite side of the world. Launching a satellite into an eccentric low earth orbit is a good place to start. It should be relatively easy with existing launch vehicles, and the high apogee will provide good lines of sight for a few minutes every orbit. However, providing global communications coverage with such a low orbit would require very many satellites.

Having a communication satellite that remains stationary relative to a satellite earth station means that the antenna wouldn't need to track movements to stay connected, and a constant line of sight can be maintained 24 hours a day. This would greatly simplify communication relay and mass transmission systems.

With an orbital period of an earth day, a satellite will remain above a constant longitude, appearing to drift north and south through the day. This will allow for constant connection to a ground station.

Type: Optional

With an orbital period of an earth day, a satellite will remain above a constant longitude, appearing to drift north and south through the day. This orbit will be able to provide a constant line of sight for satellite earth stations at low latitudes, but at high latitudes it may still drift too far north or south to be used for portions of the day. However, forgoing an inclination change burn makes this orbit easier to get to than a proper geostationary orbit.

A Molniya orbit is a type of highly elliptical orbit with an inclination of 63.4 degrees, an argument of perigee of -90 (270) degrees, and an orbital period of one half of a sidereal day. This keeps the satellite mostly to the northern hemisphere of the Earth. Place a satellite into a Molniya orbit.

There will be an orbit showing in the map view and tracking station. You do not have to place the satellite into this orbit, but it is instead meant to show you where your perigee and apogee should approximately be located, but more importantly, it shows the proper shape of the orbit.

A Molniya orbit is a type of highly elliptical orbit with an inclination of 63.4 degrees, an argument of perigee of -90 (270) degrees, and an orbital period of one half of a sidereal day. This orbit will cause the satellite to appear to remain nearly stationary in the sky for a short period at apogee. Combined with the high inclination, this orbit will allow a satellite to maintain a line of sight with satellite earth stations at a high latitude for about 6 hours a day.

A Tundra orbit is a highly elliptical geosynchronous orbit (note: not geostationary orbit) similar to a Molniya orbit, with a high inclination (usually near 63.4) and an orbital period of one sidereal day. A satellite placed in this orbit spends most of its time over a chosen area of the Earth, a phenomenon known as apogee dwell, allowing it to maintain a line of sight with satellite earth stations at a high latitude for about 8 hours a day. The ground track of a satellite in a tundra orbit is a closed figure eight.

See the RP-1 wiki for more information on how to get to a Tundra orbit.
