These satellites are commonly used for communication purposes, such as radio and television networks, back-haul, and direct broadcast.
Not included in the list below are several more classified military geosynchronous satellites, such as PAN.
A satellite in a geostationary orbit appears stationary, always at the same point in the sky, to ground observers.
Listings are from west to east (decreasing longitude in the Western Hemisphere and increasing longitude in the Eastern Hemisphere) by orbital position, starting and ending with the International Date Line.
Satellites in inclined geosynchronous orbit are so indicated by a note in the "remarks" columns.
