Matching Earth's rotation can sound like an invented trick until the orbital period is checked numerically.
Debunk
Geostationary Satellites Cannot Exist
A geostationary satellite is impossible, so fixed dishes and orbital explanations must be fake.
Why It Sounds Convincing
Calculation or Model
A circular orbit can match Earth's sidereal rotation period at one specific altitude above the equator, creating a satellite that stays at a nearly fixed sky position.
Proof and Observation
- The required altitude and orbital period follow directly from orbital mechanics.
- Fixed dishes remain aligned for years because the apparent direction stays nearly constant.
- Different observers point to different longitudes along the same equatorial orbital arc.
Graphic
Show the equatorial geostationary ring with multiple observers pointing to fixed orbital slots.
Fixed orbital slots explain dish pointing; flat models lack the same ring.
Evidence Card

Model Used
Public satellite-navigation geometry and timing references checked against the flat-earth claim.

Assumptions
- Primary emphasis is on public GNSS timing, geometry, and official constellation documentation.
- The same claim is checked against multiple independent observation types.
- Supporting evidence stays separated from the core solve model where possible.

A page-specific source set has not been attached yet.
What Would Falsify This Page
A repeatable observation or model that matched the claim while contradicting the page’s stated assumptions would count against this page.
Sources
- External source links will be added before final release: This debunk is still in beta, so the source list is currently a placeholder.
Conclusion
Geostationary orbit is a specific measurable orbital solution, not an ad hoc story.
