A drawing of an ellipsoid planet where a geosynchronous orbit is very close to the planet’s surface. Read more about it in my blog post on worldbuilding at ArmdilloCon 2006. Such a planet was proposed by the writer James P. Hogan, the ArmadilloCon 2006 special guest.

ArmadilloCon is an annual speculative fiction convention in Austin, Texas, USA.
