It is big step towards making graphene a viable, scaleable technology rather than a lab experiment.
The Inmarsat-3 F1 satellite is geostationary, it moves little and slowly relative to the Earth's surface. There is effectively no doppler shift due to motion of the satellite relative to the Earth.
I think 'geostationary' satellites wobble more than you think. This one is inclined 1.7 degrees to the equator, and whether that Doppler shift is detectable... it depends on your detector. Maybe it's really that good.
The Tao is like a glob pattern: used but never used up. It is like the extern void: filled with infinite possibilities.
