Communications and TV-broadcasting satellites generally orbit at 22,300 miles, which is called the geostationary orbit. This is because at this altitude, the satellites take exactly a day to get around the ... Earth spins around once a day too Other kinds of satellites can orbit as low as about 150 miles, and others operate at intermediate altitudes. An organization in Geneva, Switzerland, called the ...

Satellite operators purchase insurance to cover the cost of their space asset against the risks that may befall the satellite. Such risks include a failed launch, mechanical failure, electrical breakdown, debris strike and the effect of space weather. Space weather can have an effect on terrestrial infrastructure too, degrading operations ...
