Are you sure? I think you have to activate stealth armor, too, so you can see the satellite one turn. [/QB] This was a bug noted with stealth armor on sats. Once installed on one sat in the stack, the enitre stack is cloaked - activated or not.
This is seen as a bug because a cloaked sat stack at the warp point no longer attacks when an enemy comes through.

That would be one massive system! I think our solar system is about a light hour or so across. It is ~8 light minutes from the Earth to the Sun. A system is a tiny portion of the 10 LY x 10 LY square on the galaxy map.
