Summary
[edit]I've replaced the previous incorrect image with a rendering of the Sirius Radio constellation from the SaVi satellite constellation visualisation package. I wrote SaVi, and I wrote this simulation. As you can see by comparing this image with the previous image, adding multiple satellites to the same orbit misunderstands the nature of the constellation.

I was hoping you would allow me to use 2 images off of the Sirius-3 orbit data page to update information in a couple of wikipedia entries. http://www.heavens-above.com/orbitdisplay.asp?satid=26626 There is currently very little information on HEO orbits available, and this would great resource for people interested in earth orbits in general or specifically satellite radio orbits.

Hi John, Please go ahead. Chris
After permission was given the images were modified by myself to show multiple satellites.
