      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.

    • John Theux

      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?
