It was intended to be a geostationary satellite, but due to the premature stoppage of the boost from the final DM-SL stage, it ended far below the geostationary orbit. Efforts maybe underway to use the trim-maneuver thruster attached to the satellite itself to slowly raise the orbit to an approximately geostationary status. (Fuel use from that thruster usually impacts adversely on the useful lifespan of a geostationary.) Keyword(s) :
