re: IS "SATELLITE RECEPTION" *really* the basis for Internet, TV, and "Global Communications"?

I’m lost as to the point as well. But I can talk commercial satellite stuff all day!
The government stuff,… well, … I know enough to know that I don’t know anything about it and I’ll leave it at that!

So, Liberator, you think this guy's a plant, full of shite, or maybe a bit of both?

Still, none of that will compete with the massive scale of ground connectivity for a while.
I disagree, once Amazon, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Kepler communications and others get their low orbit constellations running, it will literally be better for low ping across the world. It may not be as reliable or fast, but it is the future for internet connectively across the world, in my opinion.

This subject really is something people rarely discuss or scrutinize.
Despite the protestations and supposed claims, "I knew that!", most people do NOT.
NO ONE is pointing their Satellite Dish at any actual "Satellite" up in the "sky" for "better receptions"; They are pointing it in the direction of the nearest GROUND tower.
If OVER 99% of all communications is Undersea and Land-Based, that sure minimizes the supposed use & function for all those supposed THOUSANDS of NASA and other world "Space Agency" "Satellites", doesn't it?

(OP: THIS is what we are told):
"How many satellites are orbiting the Earth?
According to the Index of Objects Launched into Outer Space maintained by the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA)...
There are 4,857 satellites currently orbiting the planet (2018)...
"...A significant proportion of the 453 were cubesats for Earth Observation or communication purposes"
What are all these satellites doing?
Using the UCS update as at the end of April, the main purposes for the operational satellites are:
Communications: 792 satellites, a 6.7% increase on last year.
Earth observation: 661 satellites, a 10.9% increase on last year.
Technology development/demonstration: 213 satellites, a 10.4% increase on last year.
Navigation/Positioning: 121 satellites, a 12% increase on last year.
Space science/observation: 76 satellites which is no real change from last year.
Earth science: 23 satellites, which is no real change from last year.
Who uses the satellites?
The four categories of users in the previous section shows that:
- 826 satellites are listed as having commercial uses
- 523 with government uses
- 399 with military user; and
- 138 with civil uses

Are you really schizo or a troll?

Are you typing right now with a "special cable" connection up you your wazoo? That might help explain your problem.
Nope, but clearly you were raised under "special cables" as a kid, which explains the topics of your threads.

Nice try.
Why don't YOU tell us what YOU think?
I'd love to hear it.

Any support for this claim?

Most commercial television and internet traffic that has been transmitted via satellite for the last couple of decades have only been permitted in the C-band and Ku-band frequency ranges.
Thank you for weighing in...
Regarding the above referenced tech specs, can you kindly explain to the class to what extent "C-band and Ku-band frequency ranges" have been be utilized?
Thanks.

I'm still waiting for YOU to wade in on YOUR opinion.
Come on -- don't be shy.

How it works at a forum (usually):
STEP ONE:
READ POST #1, examine subject / watch video / read article.
STEP TWO:
Weigh in with sharp observation, additional constructive tangent to the original subject, witty comment, or...do
a drive-by and toss empty beer bottles
STEP THREE:
Put down the beer-bottle

You know, you can just go get a telescope and look at satellites if you want to check if they are up there
