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 Paul,
Yeah, I figured they were part of the same launch, but I've never seen
them orbiting so identically for a long period like this. Perhaps the
host satellites have been re-tasked (moved) to this new configuration?
