Mosakayikira, masetilaiti amenewa angayambitse mavuto kwa zouluka zina m’tsogolo. Mkulu wa Iridium Matt Desch adawonetsa kufunitsitsa kwake kulipira kampani yomwe ingawachotse panjira. Anatchula ndalama zopusa - pafupifupi $ 10 zikwi pa satelayiti imodzi, mwachiwonekere ngati mbewu yoyambitsa kukambirana kale mochedwa. Ndizodziwikiratu kuti vuto la zinyalala za mumlengalenga lilipo, ndipo tsiku lina liyenera kuthetsedwa.
