The future, then, looks bounded by that new outer limit of planet Earth, the geostationary orbit.

那么，未被限制在地球的新的外边界之内，即同步轨。

Low Earth orbit, geostationary orbit, sun-synchronous orbit, or polar orbit?

是在低地球轨、地球静止轨、太阳同步轨，还是极地轨？

Current designs estimate that it would take about 8 days to elevate an object into geostationary orbit.

依照现在的设计，预估大约需八天才能将一物体抛上地球同步轨。

It will produce thrust Such as spacecraft could climb to a geostationary orbit above.

它将产生推力，使航天器能够爬升到地球同步轨之上。

And we're able to do that because we're in this special orbit called geostationary orbit.

我们能够做到这一点，是因为我们处于一称为地球静止轨的特殊轨上。

Well, yes, this is geostationary orbit.

是的，这是地球同步轨。

It's coming from low earth orbit or medium earth orbit or geostationary orbit.

可能自低地球轨、中地球轨或地球静止轨。

And I think we have settled on it coming from geostationary orbit.

我认为我们已经确定它自地球同步轨。

Objects at this specific distance are in geostationary orbit, meaning they revolve around Earth at the same rate the planet spins, thus appearing motionless in the sky.

处在这特定距离下的物体，同时也处在地球同步轨上，意味着它们绕行地球的速率和地球自转相同，因此它们在天空中的位置起静止不动。

You've got like low Earth orbits, then you've got like geostationary orbit, you've got all of these different bands and they were just like at the very legal limit of what space is.

你有近地轨， 然后是地球同步轨，还有所有这些不同的轨带， 而他们正好处于太空定义的法定极限。

These mechanisms would require huge amounts of electricity, which could be provided by solar panels or potentially even nuclear systems. Current designs estimate that it would take about 8 days to elevate an object into geostationary orbit.

这些机制需大量的电力，这些电力可以由太阳能电池板甚至核系统提供。目前的设计估计，将物体提升到地球静止轨大约需 8 天。

And so if you've gone down to those candidates, you said in particular you thought it was one in geostationary orbit, in other words, one that's sort of hanging over a particular part of the equator, is that right?

因此， 如果你已经查了那些候选对象，你特别提到认为其中一位于地球同步轨上，换句话说， 就是悬停在赤某特定区域的卫星，是这样吗？
