Here’s a house from Tuktoyaktuk. It’s interesting to see how the satellite dish is almost parrallel to the ground, because of the curve of the earth.
People watch "the Daily Show" here too…

That’s perpendicular… not parallel

I definitely mean parallel: From what I’ve seen, the dishes don’t shoot skywards but point directly towards the horizon, like the angle of someone throwing a rock to skip across water
Am I wrong to assume satellite dishes orbit somewhere around the “middle” of earth, in the direction of the equator?
At any rate, I’ll readu up about it. Thanks George!
