📄️ Equatorial orbit

Equatorial orbit is the orbit over the equator. The inclination of this orbit is 0°.

Polar orbit is perpendicular to the equator. The inclination of this orbit is 90 degrees. The orbit track of the polar satellite is going over all the latitudes of the Earth, unlike satellites with the orbit’s inclination lower than 90°.
