There are no polar orbits in GPS. There are 6 such orbits with all of
them inclined by 55 degrees or so from the equatorial plane and
shifted 60 degrees (6 x 60 = 360) from one orbit to another. <shrug>

That is irrelevant. The bottom line is that you as a professor are
totally clueless and irresponsibly ignorant about even Newtonian
mechanics. <shrug>

You should not have passed your first year physics course. <shrug>
Of course, you are no professor but a children’s book writer. No
professor would agree with the likes of DAVE and Dono, the symbols of
gross ignorance. <shrug>
