Pretty good for those in remote areas , i " think " :thumbsup:
They say their satellites are 60 times lower than typical satellites to reduce latency. If the sats are normally 22000 miles up to maintain geosync orbit, I wonder how this system works at only 365 miles. That's lower than the ISS.
The ISS is 254 miles up, way below those things.
And here is a look see at where they all are, and you are correct, they are not geosynchronous satellites....This is why they need so many.
