A good choice since the circle is the lowest configuration of any energy state. For example, weather satellites orbit at geosynchronous circular orbits or maybe geostationary requiring less energy to maintain the orbital path while spy satellites are usually elongated orbits with extreme apogees and perigees requiring much energy and high cost to maintain. The circle is the ground state in quantum mechanics.Originally Posted by mkirkpatrick
