While many new technologies, like AI, facilitate integration, the physical link and the ability to hold and transfer to alternatives are central to how well such schemes will work in practice. Most certainly, multi-orbit integration is possible, but at what cost and complexity? We take a communications perspective rather than a pure technology orientation.
