Answer:

The answer is false

Explaination:

From Earth, a satellite in geosynchronous orbit appears to "hover" over one spot on the Equator. This helps the receiving dish on the ground. It can get information from the satellite by pointing at just one point in the sky. It doesn't have to move, or "track," the satellite across the sky
