I thought this was going to be a
parasitic satellite. Maybe a tiny, cheap
satellite that tracked a larger one, then
docked with it magnetically. It could sit
on top of the main satellite's radiator,
using the waste heat-flux to power
itself thermoelectrically. By aligning it's
own antenna with that of the main
satellite, it would never have to perform
any corrective maneuvers itself - it
would therefore need no onboard
propellant apart from that needed to
get it into position initially. |

that gem come from? Do you mean to say
that, rather than putting Hubble up there,
we could just have opted for a large
aquarium and a hammerhead? |
