Love the title. :)
Hughes' direct competition is having a little issue with their new satellite, as well. Antenna problems, evidently. Maybe after flying up and fixing that one they can swing by and fix the antennas on this one. LOL. The real question is, who's gonna spring for the extra gas? :p

Well, it's not going to be the Romulans, that's for sure. It's a Federation issue.

In some ways this reminds me of the recent movie "Geostorm" where an LEO constellation that controls the weather goes a little...crazy :) But... there is such thing as interplanetary internet, which is already in the works: https://futurism.com/new-tech-installed-on-the-iss-set-to-form-solar-system-wide-internet/ . https://futurism.com/new-tech-installed-on-the-iss-set-to-form-solar-system-wide-internet/

I can imagine the complaints......
"I just got SolarSysNet and the agent told me I'd be able to stream NetflixOffPlanet without a problem, but they LIED."
"Where did my data go?? I just watched a couple of shows on HuluMars and now all my data is gone! What a ripoff!"

For some reason, I LOVED Geostorm! XD

I thought it was fun, but I am a disaster movie fan and for one welcome our satellite overlords. I just watched The Cloverfield Paradox last night. If you are into the Cloververse, space-alien-timey-wimey type stuff and not too picky about plot holes... you'll enjoy it :)
