The satellite itself uses a dish similar to your own satellite dish, to receive the video and send it back down to Earth.

Justice Hurts


At this time, William’s trial was nearing its end in the courthouse, and everything became clear. The jurors had grown tired over the course of the case but listened to the judge pronouncing William’s sentence. Things had clearly come to a sad end.

«…despite the lack of evidence of a premeditated murder, pursuant to Paragraph 210 of Part 2 of the USA’s Criminal Code, even the unintentional loss of a person’s life during a robbery, rape, arson, kidnapping or escape from custody must be considered in any case as an extreme indifference to the value of human life, and must be qualified as a first-degree murder. Therefore, the court pronounces a sentence of two life sentences for each murder and the verdict comes into force from the moment of this announcement.»

There were no further comments from anyone. It wasn’t a death sentence. They let him him live. Everyone in the court room looked round in surprise, not daring to express any emotions. William even looked up at the judge, trying to understand what had just happened, but he didn’t succeed. His head was empty and he couldn’t think straight; William’s mind was already dead and a life sentence was no different for him than death, so all the way back to prison he rolled in the back of the van in a complete daze.
