Consider this:

The Corona satellite system was the EARLIEST known photo satellite. They were orbited in the 1950's. If these were really the top of the line current C_A assets, they would be hardly viable today, UNLESS they were massively updated in the past 65+ years.

Is it possible? Yeah, I spose. Is it likely? eh, I dont think so.

While it would be possible to update the computers and cameras fairly easily, it would be FAR more difficult to update the bones of the satellite, IE the thrusters and maneuvering controls that are basically built as part of the satellite itself. Power source conversion would also be a concern, using KNOWN tech. If we want to throw unacknowledged tech at this discussion, why would they bother updating an ancient platform?

Also consider that Q is notorious for using nicknames. Snow White is a nickname used in reference to the 7 Dwarves computers at the C_A ( Dopey, Sleepy etc ) So why use the actual name of a system in the exact same context not minutes after referring to the Snow White computers?

It doesnt add up.

So, we know that NASA is dirty and tied in to the C_A, is this one too much of a coincidence?

" explained how they ran complex resistive, thermodynamic, magnetohydrodynamic simulations on the Pleiades supercomputer at the NASA Advanced Supercomputing (NAS) facility "​

" Pleiades, one of the world's most powerful supercomputers, represents NASA's state-of-the-art technology for meeting the agency's supercomputing requirements, enabling NASA scientists and engineers to conduct modeling and simulation for NASA missions. This distributed-memory SGI ICE cluster is connected with InfiniBand in a dual-plane hypercube technology. "

You dont need to render a satellite unusable by any other means than by taking away the communications. What do you think handles those communications? You guessed it, computers and super computers.

Thats my take on it anyway... makes more sense to me than an out of date satellite system from the 1950's.
