- ta1243 3y agoA GEO one, no chance. It will have enough to change out of GEO to a graveyard orbit, which means it will have enough to shift its position in GEO and collide with another satelite. LEO sure, you don't need to adjust your perigee or even your angle of attack much to change orbit. But then very little from a satellite will reach the ground.
