I see from this it appears in orbit around the sun, located 1 million miles further out than earth’s orbit. One could say on the dark side of the earth, shaded by earth all the time ??
4 times as far then the earth’s moon is.
Is this a correct assessment ?
Can’t always be totally in shade of earth as it needs sun to power from. So maybe off by one degree. Earth needs alot of power for data as to overcome noise from the sun mixed in with it.
Correct.
It’s ‘isolated’ from Earth’s noise as well.................
