Fuel Optimization for Low Earth Orbit Maintenance [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008 The resolution of Earth images taken from a satellite has close relation with satellite's altitude. If a satellite has lower altitude, it gets a picture having better resolution.

Microlensing planet detection via geosynchronous and low Earth orbit satellites [PDF]
A&A 585, A62 (2016), 2015 Planet detection through microlensing is usually limited by a well-known degeneracy in the Einstein timescale $t_E$, which prevents mass and distance of the lens to be univocally determined. It has been shown that a satellite in geosynchronous orbit could provide masses and distances for most standard planetary events ($t_E \approx 20$ days) via a ...

Mapping Earth Analogs from Photometric Variability: Spin-Orbit Tomography for Planets in Inclined Orbits [PDF]
ApJ, 755, 101 (2012), 2012 Aiming at obtaining detailed information of surface environment of Earth analogs, Kawahara & Fujii (2011) proposed an inversion technique of annual scattered light curves named the spin-orbit tomography (SOT), which enables one to sketch a two-dimensional albedo map from annual variation of the disk-integrated scattered light, and demonstrated the ...
