Orbit Molniya

Figure 1: The Molniya orbit. Usually the period from perigee +2 hours to perigee +10 hours is used to transmit to the northern hemisphere
Groundtrack of Molniya orbit. In the operational part of the orbit from apogee −3 hours to apogee +3 hours the satellite is north of 55.5° N (latitude of for example central Scotland, Moscow and southern part of Hudson Bay)

Orbit Molniya (Rusia: Молния; IPA: [molnʲɪjə] (mendengarkan), "Lightning") adalah jenis orbit yang sangat elips dengan kemiringan 63,4 derajat, argumen dari perigee dari -90 derajat dan periode orbit satu setengah hari sidereal. Molniya orbit diberi nama setelah serangkaian satelit komunikasi Soviet / Rusia Molniya yang telah menggunakan jenis orbit ini sejak pertengahan 1960-an.

Untuk mendapatkan cakupan elevasi tinggi terus menerus dari belahan bumi utara, setidaknya tiga pesawat ruang angkasa Molniya yang diperlukan.
