This note shows the dynamic growth in the use of the geosynchronous orbit which has occurred during the past decade and will continue in the near future. Diagrams are given which indicate the increasing utilization of the geosynchronous orbit, and give the approximate shape and longitudinal position of satellites already in orbit, as well as the nominal longitudinal positions of satellites announced for launch through about 1980. A table lists the satellites according to the key numbers indicated in the diagrams and provides other pertinent data.
