I found nothing in that article claiming that any satellites were "knocked out".

Foolish headline writers screw up again...

That's just the Daily Mail hyping the story a little. If they really wanted to juice it, they would have said "knocked up".

It appears the only thing left out of the article was a rousing THUNDERBIRDS GO!
