Audit the orbit. Calculate the orbital period of a satellite or planet based on its semi-major axis and the mass of the central body.
Kepler's Third Law states that the square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis. At an altitude corresponding to an axis of 42164 km, a satellite orbiting Earth completes a revolution in 23.93 hours. This is why Geostationary orbit (GEO) is exactly ~23.93 hours.
