[amsat-bb] Question about satellite orbit classification

[Gilberto_Campos@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello all.

Someone asked me this question I could not answer, nor had I ever thought 
of that:
         -when is a sat called a Low Earth Orbit sat?

More generally: what are the orbit classifications in function of 
perigee/apogee (apart from the obvious geostationary)?

Thanks and 73 de CT2DAC/IZ2DHN
Gilberto
