The primary benefit of multi-orbit interoperability is to be able to guarantee the connection to the network under any circumstances, including user location, motion and timing of demand for service. Also, the immediate choice of satellite or orbit may be based on the cost of the connection and data transfer. Herein, we identify alternatives to achieve multi-orbit networks and rate them as to their capability, feasibility and costs. 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.
