Sir Arthur C. Clarke....R.I.P.

As well as being a writer of many fine sci-fi novels..  Sir Arthur C. Clarke will be remembered by me for predicting the orbit altitude for placing a satellite in geostationary orbit...IE: a satellite turning with the earth while keeping above one given point of the earth at an altitude of 36,000 km.  As all satellite tv enthusiasts call it... The Clarke Belt.

Rest in peace sir...  you will not be forgotten.
