That is the issue, these nano-satellites are insured at the same rate as larger GEO satellites even though they burn up when in re-entry. Insurance will cover launch (but launch vehicle also has its own insurance, so does each space port), in-orbit collisions, and re-entry (which once again seems pointless)

The insurance is roughly 6500 pounds so for the SAS constellation that equates to 1,300,000 pounds before they are in space.

SAS satellites last +-4 years and they plan. If memory serves me correctly replacing 25% a year.

So a recurring cost over 400,000 pounds every year.

Powered by solar panels. I there is some ability re-direct using drag but I assume that ability diminishes over time (i probably don't know enough about that).

i can see the insurance companies arguing now over who was at fault for an in-orbit collision......
