      They do. But you could have to wait almost a year to get one.

      They are on a very low orbit. They get deorbited by atmospheric drag if there is a failure.

    How are they going to replace all the satellites that fell from orbit? Imagine the amount of money/resources it took to engineer, manufacture, transport, and launch the satellite.

      EXACTLY. POORLY PLANNED AND EXECUTED MISSION.

      Easy, they’ve already replaced them.

      All 40 satellites were on the same orbit (they were launched on the same rocket) so they can be replaced in one launch.

      @John Theux THESE ASSCLOWNS WILL LAUNCH MORE SATELLITES AFTER BAD FAILING SATELLITES, WHY NOT?? ITS ONLY MONEY, RIGHT?
