[QUOTE="PhoenixM3, post: 16173310, member: 140283"] Well, the earth can’t be a cylinder either. The program I’m working with now uses satellites (a spherical-shaped earth) in a phased and highly elliptical orbits to provide communication to surprise - submarines operating above 65N latitude up to and including the polar cap. The earth terminals we use to track satellites in orbit as they come into view (ascension) use ephemera data to predict where the satellite tracking antennas must be pointed to acquire and track the birds so the communication process can take place. The trace created by the tracking terminals creates a nice arc across the sky. If the earth was cylindrical, then we’d observe tracking anomalies as the satellite’s pass occurred. [/QUOTE]
