Calling it "wrong orbit" is misleading (albeit in a hilarious way). They failed to reach the target altitude/velocity and released the satellite into a useless orbit. It's the same as dropping a package into a ditch and calling it "delivered to the wrong location". Technically correct but not really what it means.

“Your package has been delivered.”

Stupid shit like this is more common than you might realise.

A commercial geostationary satellite launched to cover Australia and New Zealand had its dishes installed incorrectly, causing spot footprints to cover the two countries to be incorrectly aligned.

As a result a whole lot of satellite dishes on the ground had to be adjusted to "fix" the problem.

Source: I had a ground station that was affected.

Lol

Lmao

Amazon delivery sucks even in SPAAAAAAAACE

Surprise...from the same company that delivered my package to the wrong city last month.

amazing potential for insurance fraud holy shit

imagine "failing" to place dummy satellites on orbit, or changing your mind about the investment last second

nobody's gonna be able to 100% confirm it was a fraud, would they?

Look, maybe "Its not rocket scence" didn't quite have the implication that was implied ok?

Capitalist Vs state owned? Or just way too fresh to the field? NASA had catastrophes seemingly owing to pressure, just as these companies are operating under.
