sixties by Dr. Vikram Sarabhai.
It replaced the INSAT 4A, which has pulled through 15 years in its high, Geostationary orbit.
BulgariaSat-1, the first Geostationary communications satellite in Bulgaria's history,
was successfully deployed about 35 minutes after launch.
A satellite in a Geostationary orbit appears to be in a fixed position to an earth-based observer.
Geostationary orbit is located at a height of 35,786
km over the Earth's surface, directly above the Equator.
GSLV-F05 in its 10th flight would

before it was to be raised to the final circular Geostationary Orbit(GSO) by firing the satellite's Liquid Apogee Motor(LAM)
The satellites generally contain cameras that can return photos of Earth's weather,
either from fixed Geostationary positions or from polar orbits.

In American specialized publications they write that when testing the DN-2,
the possibility of destroying satellites in high Geostationary orbits was tested.
Communications satellites- our"space mirrors"- are usually parked in Geostationary orbits so their signals always reach
the satellite dishes pointing up at them.

ISRO in place of INSAT-4A which was a series of Geostationary satellites for telecommunications, meteorology, broadcasting etc.?
ISRO has revealed that the satellite will be initially placed
in the Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit and will be later raised to Geostationary Orbit.
