New technologies in micro satellites are moving very fast as processors, sensors and systems get more powerful and much smaller. I propose to have these systems and micro satellites to be in a solar system type configuration as they fly, spinning around each other with each small micro satellite literally connected to another and spinning around a center satellite module connected to a few of the orbiting micro satellites.

The Lines holding them together will also be an entergy tail, that is to say it collects electromagnetic energy to keep the small communication system in low orbit, which takes a lot more energy, but there is significant electromagnetic energy there as well.

Why Low orbit? Well it allows for listen devices to be quite robust in ability and cuts down on the delay of communication time from Geo Sync Satellites. Perfect for the Military, NSA or commercial applications. Smaller satellites also have a reduced risk or the chance of collision by orbiting space junk and in low orbit there will be little if any of this orbiting high-speed debris.

By putting these units on tethers then will know where each one is and be able to be a single point of eight-point or Octa-angulation for precise GPS needs. Additionally they could be as far as 100-meters apart and operate net-centric or together, meaning you cannot see them, too small, you cannot shoot down what you cannot see and you have a massive communication and world class GPS system, as well as a spy listening device. Think on this.
