Did anyone ask for this? No. Did it make me laugh? Yes. Enjoy the chibi version of spilled milk

To anyone curious about the science behind the Brick Satellite:

-as a fixed point in the sky, it follows a geosynchronous/geostationary orbit. This mean that it orbits the Earth at the same speed that Earth rotates (so Anna will only ever see half of the Earth), and also that it rotates around the same axis as Earth does (so it stays at the equator and never crosses the poles or gets into any higher latitudes) (see diagram for details).

-satellites that follow this orbit either need to be launched at the equator, or make course corrections after launch (for example, with boosters). Even in modern day, the European Space Agency does launches in French Guiana because transporting people and equipment to South America is less expensive than the additional costs of launching the additional fuel, boosters, etc. And for a satellite made out of Brick?! Yeah, a launch in England or South Africa would not be possible (you could technically launch a satellite that orbits Earth, but it wouldn't follow the right orbit to remain fixed in the sky and so it wouldn't help anyone with navigation).

-other fun fact about Geosynchronous orbits: they're pretty far out, especially compared to satellites in low earth orbits like the ISS (see diagram for reference). So those must have been some pretty powerful flywheels.
