What is height of apogee?

A high Earth orbit (HEO) is a geocentric orbit with an altitude above that of a geosynchronous orbit. A highly elliptical orbit (HEO) is an elliptic orbit with a low-altitude (about 1,000 kilometers) perigee and a high-altitude (over 35,786 kilometers) apogee.

How to Calculate Apogee Heights?

Apogee Heights calculator uses Apogee Height = Apogee Radius-[Earth-R] to calculate the Apogee Height, Apogee Heights refers to the highest point in a satellite's elliptical orbit, where it moves slowest, facilitating efficient communication and longer visibility for ground stations during transmission. Apogee Height is denoted by Hapogee symbol.

How to calculate Apogee Heights using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Apogee Heights, enter Apogee Radius (rapogee) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Apogee Heights calculation can be explained with given input values -> 2.476991 = 8848000-[Earth-R].

FAQ

What is Apogee Heights?
Apogee Heights refers to the highest point in a satellite's elliptical orbit, where it moves slowest, facilitating efficient communication and longer visibility for ground stations during transmission and is represented as Hapogee = rapogee-[Earth-R] or Apogee Height = Apogee Radius-[Earth-R].
