I had Google Fiber installed in my apartment a year ago. I was walking through the parking garage and I caught one of the techs doing alignment splicing. I asked him where the nearest Google Fiber Hut was and he said about the quarter mile away near a Taco Bell. I remarked that's pretty good, but he said well it's even further than that because it's not line of sight. He pulled out a tool that could measure the total length of installed fiber via refection... It was over 20,000 feet. And that was just to go from the garage to fiber hut 1/4 mi away. I don't know how the topology of Google's network works, but I thought that was crazy.

Granted leo satellites are 1200mi away but it's worth remembering that.
