>>The argument between Mq and me is about one thing, and one thing only. I told him that LEOs are smaller than GEOs because they are closer to the earth, so they need to be smaller and/or go faster because of Earth's gravitational pull.<< As Wildstar's equations show, the size (mass) of the satellite is not a factor... Message 16262877 The argument started when you suggested that the size mattered. The LEOs do have to go faster, but they do not have to be smaller. Otherwise Pluto would be the closest planet to the sun, and Jupiter would be the farthest away. I think we could end this debate if you would acknowledge that the size does not matter.
