Satellite is an uncommon Joker that gives $1 at the end of each round per unique planet card used in the run. By default players can earn up to $9 from it by using all available Planet Cards and an additional $3 can be earned by playing and unlocking the three secret hands (Five of a kind Flush House and Flush Five).
Each planet card only needs to be used once in a run to count for Satellite. Black Hole whilst sometimes available from a Celestial pack is actually a Spectral card and will not increase the $ gained from Satellite.
Synergies
Jokers
🃏 Since Satellite is maximized through the use of Planet Cards it synergizes with Constellation which gains x0.1 Mult per planet card used.
🃏 Satellite benefits from Astronomer which makes planet cards and planet packs free.
🃏 Showman can have anti-synergy with Satellite since it will allow duplicate planet cards to appear and Satellite requires unique planet cards.
🃏 Smeared Joker can make it much easier to unlock the secret hands thereby maximizing Satellites value.
