In other planets By the same method, we can determine the orbital altitude for any similar pair of bodies, including the areostationary orbit of an object in relation to Mars, if it is assumed that it is spherical (which it is not entirely). The gravitational constant GM (μ) for Mars has the value of , its equatorial radius is and the known rotational period (T) of the planet is (). Using these values, Mars' orbital altitude is equal to .
