How to install Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab on Windows?

Instruction on how to install Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab on Windows 10 Windows 11 PC & Laptop

In this post, I am going to show you how to install Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab on Windows PC by using Android App Player such as BlueStacks, LDPlayer, Nox, KOPlayer, ...

Before you start, you will need to download the APK/XAPK installer file, you can find download button on top of this page. Save it to easy-to-find location.

[Note] You can also download older versions of this app on bottom of this page.

Below you will find a detailed step-by-step guide, but I want to give you a fast overview of how it works. All you need is an emulator that will emulate an Android device on your Windows PC and then you can install applications and use it - you see you're playing it on Android, but this runs not on a smartphone or tablet, it runs on a PC.

If this doesn't work on your PC, or you cannot install, comment here and we will help you!

Step By Step Guide To Install Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab using BlueStacks

  1. Download and Install BlueStacks at: https://www.bluestacks.com. The installation procedure is quite simple. After successful installation, open the Bluestacks emulator. It may take some time to load the Bluestacks app initially. Once it is opened, you should be able to see the Home screen of Bluestacks.
  2. Open the APK/XAPK file: Double-click the APK/XAPK file to launch BlueStacks and install the application. If your APK/XAPK file doesn't automatically open BlueStacks, right-click on it and select Open with... Browse to the BlueStacks. You can also drag-and-drop the APK/XAPK file onto the BlueStacks home screen
  3. Once installed, click "Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab" icon on the home screen to start using, it'll work like a charm :D

[Note 1] For better performance and compatibility, choose BlueStacks 5 Nougat 64-bit read more

[Note 2] about Bluetooth: At the moment, support for Bluetooth is not available on BlueStacks. Hence, apps that require control of Bluetooth may not work on BlueStacks.

How to install Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab on Windows PC using NoxPlayer

  1. Download & Install NoxPlayer at: https://www.bignox.com. The installation is easy to carry out.
  2. Drag the APK/XAPK file to the NoxPlayer interface and drop it to install
  3. The installation process will take place quickly. After successful installation, you can find "Geostationary Orbit 3D Lab" on the home screen of NoxPlayer, just click to open it.

Introduction
A geostationary (Earth) satellite is a satellite that rotates around Earth in a certain orbit such that it is always positioned above the same point on the Earth’s surface. Hence from the point of view of an observer standing at that point, the geostationary satellite appears to be always ‘stationary’ above him/her (but actually, both observer and satellite are rotating at the same angular speed). In order for a satellite to be moving in such a geostationary orbit, there are certain conditions to meet:

placed vertically above the equator
same directional sense as the rotation of the Earth (determine through **** of rotation)
same orbital period of Planet, in our case, Earth, thus the orbital period of approximately 24 hrs

The simulation has a Earth and a Satellite object Menu Drop Down Allows for selecting what motion of Satellite is simulated.
Geostationary near Singapore
Geostationary near Africa
Geostationary near America
Non-geostationary due to direction
circular motion r=3*Re, T =7.30 hr
circular motion r=10.5*Re, T = 48 hr
Non-Geostationary generally
Unlikely Orbits
Options added are:
Show:equator Plane, for visualising the Earth's rotating equator plane
Geo stationary, for visualising a geostationary object (RED) for comparative observation with the other modes.
Show text: 35 700 km fixed position of object relative to planet earth.
Axes earth: show spin axes of the rotation of earth in GREEN
Axes satellite: show spin axes of the rotation of satellite in MAGENTA
Force: pair of action reaction force of equal magnitude, opposite direction and on different bodies. (Newton's 3rd Law)
