<darsie> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geostationary_orbit says GEO is 35786 km or 23:56:04. I have 23:56:04.001, 35,786,058 m, 35,800,223 m. Something is off.
<darsie> argl
<darsie> hmm
<darsie> nm
<darsie> I thought it was above Earths center, but it's above Equator.
<darsie> Maybe KSP Earth is too spherical.
<darsie> And thus altitude above equator is higher.

<soundnfury> darsie: yep, KSP's Earth isn't oblate. (that'll bring him out of his shell)
<soundnfury> I think GEO ends up being 35792.

<darsie> I got 35,793,140 m.
<darsie> With 6371 km radius.
<darsie> GM has lots of digits, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geostationary gives orbital period only to second precision.
<darsie> 23h 56m 4.100s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth
<darsie> 35,793,172 m
<soundnfury> sounds about right
<darsie> mhm 23 h 56 min 4,1 s https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erde
<darsie> Mean radius 6371.0 km
