Sorry to burst your bubble - the geostationary point is 22,300 miles about our planet. That is where the TV satellites are. That is what you can have a fixed DISH for digital TV.

Everything closer in than that is either in orbit or powered.

It took me a few passes to figure out why you figure you are contradicting me... then I realized that I wrote "hundreds of miles." OK... 223 is a lot of hundreds. :^) Amazingly, no one picked up two major gaffes I made about centifugal force and weak force: Weak force is at the opposite end of the scale spectrum than I placed it, and I inverted the action of the larger object in my brief description of the minority definition of centrifugal force.
