👍very good, non other videos show why it is not orbiting in different latitudes other than the equator.

If a rocket flew at less than the escape velocity but maintained a course perpendicular to the earth, would it eventually reach a certain distance away from earth and be stuck in a geo orbit with its course pointing out to space

Can we put a crown on earth?
