      <image:title>Deep Dives - Satellites That Repair Satellites: Why In-Orbit Servicing Has Finally Become Real - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>GEO provides the clearest early market for servicing because individual satellites are valuable, long-lived and expensive to replace. In LEO, repair must compete against the falling cost of launching a replacement.</image:caption>
