Low Earth Orbit (LEO)

LEO- Low Earth Orbit :

LEO satellites are much closer to the earth than GEO satellites, ranging from 500 to 1,500 km above the surface.

LEO satellites don’t stay in fixed position relative to the surface, and are only visible for 15 to 20 minutes each pass.

A network of LEO satellites is necessary for LEO satellites to be useful.
these satellites are very useful in tasks like observation of earth.
. LEO is used for military spy satellites to keep a watchful eye on other countries.
LEO satellites can collect data about the oceans for climate and ecological studies.
change in weather conditions can be estimated with LEO satellites.
 they can survey the land in the hunt for minerals and oil.
