Stationary orbit around Ike is not possible — it would require an altitude of {{OrbitAltitude | period_s=64980 | mass_kg=2.78219487161284e20 | radius_km=130 }}, outside of Ike's sphere of influence.

Ike is a moon and the only natural satellite of Duna.

Stationary orbit around Ike is not possible — it would require an altitude of 0.00 m, outside of Ike's sphere of influence. However, since Ike and Duna are tidally locked to each other, a spacecraft in stationary orbit around Duna will see Ike in a stable, non-rotating position, as it would appear in a stationary Ike orbit.
