just curious to know about all of these thread and answer it actually the Blockstream Satellite network broadcasts the Bitcoin blockchain around the world 24/7 for free, protecting against network interruptions and providing areas without reliable internet connections with the opportunity to use Bitcoin. Blockstream Satellite broadcasts the Bitcoin blockchain to the entire planet via satellite, reducing Bitcoin’s dependency on internet access. Everyone in the world now has an opportunity to use Bitcoin. Blockstream Satellite provides an alternative method for receiving the Bitcoin Blockstream Satellite ground stations, known as 'teleports,' participate in the Bitcoin network and transmit blocks to geosynchronous satellites.

To emphasize that point, further down on the page they say
Blockstream Satellite ground stations, known as 'teleports,' participate in the Bitcoin network and transmit blocks to geosynchronous satellites.
Satellite Geosynchronous satellites, orbiting at an altitude of 35,786 km (22,236 mi), receive the signal from the Blockstream Satellite teleports and broadcast it across a wide portion of the Earth.
Anyone in the coverage area with a small satellite antenna and an inexpensive USB receiver can receive these blocks and ensure that their node is always in sync.
Key point here is that to
transmit to the network you need a link of some sort to one of those ground stations so your computer/miner/node/whatever can send data upstream. Like, er, you found a block or want to send some
BTC to someone...
So either you purchase a ground station from them or use WAN, p-p microwave or LaserLink, local off-grid mesh network, Targeted WiFi, Packet Radio, Dial-up, etc to link to one.
