* In the anime, the original reason that "Satellite Cannon" couldn't be destroyed was because it's summoned up in space, too high for any '''weak''' monster to reach.  Kaiba's "[[Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]" on the other hand, being incredibly strong (and [[Level]] 8), was able to fly up and destroy it.

* This monster is based on a [[wikipedia:Satellite|satellite]].
** This was mirrored in real life by preventing this card from being destroyed by any monster that's level 7 or lower (those that are too "weak").
+
** This card's effects to gain 1000 [[ATK]] at the end of each turn and change its increased ATK to 0 after [[damage calculation]] if it attacks are based on how a satellite can collect [[wikipedia:Solar power|solar power]] or some similar form of [[wikipedia:Energy|energy]], and then release its energy in the form of a [[wikipedia:Laser|laser]].
 +
** Fittingly, in the anime ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' anime, when this monster was Summoned, it appeared in [[wikipedia:Outer space|outer space]].
 +
*** Its effect of being unable to be [[destroyed by battle]] with a [[Level]] 7 or lower monster is based on how other monsters were often out of the range to attack it.
  
* "Satellite Cannon" bears a resemblance to the satellite that [[Sartorius]] tried to gain access to during his final duel with [[Jaden]] in season two of [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]].
+
* This monster has an [[Card evolutions|upgraded]] [[Fusion Monster|Fusion]] form: "[[Satellite Laser Balsam (anime)|Satellite Laser Balsam]]".
 
 
* "Satellite Cannon's" design and name may be a reference to After War Gundam X in which the "Satellite Cannon" is a weapon used by the Gundam's with the signature "X" (4 solar panels that form an X like shape) design.
 
 
 
* This has an anime only support card known as "[[Charge]]".
 
 
 
* This card's effect and name suggests that each turn, "Satellite Cannon" collects Solar Power or some similar form of energy then releases this energy in some form of laser when it attacks.
 
 
 
* Interestingly, unlike most monsters, who emerge in front of the duelist who summoned it, view shifts to the "Satellite Cannon" in outer space.
