Well, the satellite isn’t standing still in space. It’s orbing Earth. It just happens to oribt Earth at the exact same speed and direction as the earth is rotating so it just looks like it’s standing still.
Not sure why I can’t see your reply. I could have worded that better. I didn’t think a satellite could stay above a fixed location on Earth, but now it makes sense - it just rotates at the same speed and orbit of Earth.
