🔍 Key Concepts

• Inmarsat ocean regions and which one covers the Atlantic Ocean Region-East (AOR-E) • Locations and roles of coast earth stations (CES) or Land Earth Stations that support AOR‑E traffic • Which countries border or have gateways for the eastern Atlantic versus the Pacific or Indian Ocean regions

💭 Think About

• First, match the satellite region AOR‑E with the general geographic area on a world map. Which side of the Atlantic does it cover? • Then, think about which countries listed would logically host shore stations that serve ships off the U.S. Atlantic Coast tracking AOR‑E. • Compare each answer choice and ask: Are all of the listed earth stations plausibly associated with the AOR‑E region, or do some clearly belong to other ocean regions (Indian, Pacific)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which ocean region (AOR‑E, AOR‑W, IOR, POR) each listed earth station primarily serves—focus on AOR‑E coverage. • Check which of the listed earth stations are located in Europe or the eastern side of the Atlantic and which are clearly in Asia or other regions. • Confirm that the correct option should list only earth stations that are appropriate for ships off the U.S. Atlantic Coast using AOR‑E—if one station in a set is obviously wrong for that region, eliminate that entire choice.
