The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system that consists of a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth. As of my last update, there are at least 31 operational GPS satellites in various orbits, primarily in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) at approximately 20,200 kilometers (12,550 miles) above the Earth. The satellites are designed to provide accurate positioning, navigation, and timing information to GPS receivers worldwide.
