a stationary orbit is done with a period equal to the time it takes the planet to revolve one time so that the satellite appears to remain at the same point in the sky all the time. For the Earth that means a period of 24 hours. The planet Mars has a mass of 6.4 x 10^23 kg and a day that is 24.67 hours= 8.9 x 10^5s long. Find the radius of a stationary orbit.
