Y'all are doing real well with the satellite discussion. It may interest some of you to know that the rings of Saturn were found to be braided in 4's. This blew the hell out of the direction they were going on unified field theory which predicted they would be braided in 3's. With no atmospheric refraction to contend with, this was still a rather accomplished feat. Some of you are thinking very solid on intel sats. Think eliptical orbits with a pass "on the deck" over 2 target areas, and think multiple mirrored geosynchonous orbits. With a large target area, enhancement of specific sections can be acomplished. Also, quit limiting your thinking to the visible light spectrum. Electomagnetic waves are electromagnetic waves- just a bunch of rolling circle turns actually. In case someone eats my lunch on the geosynchonous multi-mirrored suggestion, take a look at multiple coverage of primary target areas with large general surveillance able to be enhanced to specific detail in selected sectors in mind.
