They were launched on the same mission and have stayed pretty close together as I believe the two host satellites are identical, though the distance does vary some.

Hello all,
Has anyone else noticed that CAS-4A and -4B appear to be orbiting nearly on top of each other today?
At first, I thought it was an odd font artifact when I looked at the world map view. Nope, they're basically on top of one another.
