A satellite constellation (100) includes a plurality of artificial satellites (111 to 116) that number a multiple of 6. Each of the plurality of artificial satellites orbits in an inclined circular orbit a plurality of times a day. Normals to a plurality of orbital planes corresponding to the plurality of artificial satellites are shifted by an equal angle from each other in an azimuth direction. The plurality of orbital planes make up one or more orbital plane sets each consisting of six orbital planes. Timings at which the six artificial satellites orbit on the six orbital planes of each orbital plane set are synchronized with each other.
