= Statite
{wiki=Statite}
A statite is a theoretical concept referring to a type of spacecraft or platform designed to remain stationary over a specific point on a planet or moon, using advanced technology like energy-harvesting systems to counteract gravitational forces. The term is derived from "stationary satellite," and it is often discussed in the context of planetary exploration or for potential uses in spaces such as asteroid mining or long-term scientific observation.
