The history and achievements of it are well documented, and I believe that we've come much farther with it than we're being led to believe. In short, I don't find it hard to imagine that what we're being told are vehicles with orbital trajectories out in the vacuum of space could be inner-space vehicles which can adjust course easily. A possible "polar path" could be simply that a craft of some kind is merely bouncing from one side of the map to the other. Meaning, what we percieve as south is actually the perimeter of the Earth and north is in the middle, so it just has to reach the boundary and go back in the opposite direction. There is also the possibility that the ISS is the only satellite up there, and it could be suspended in a similar manner, or guided by a gps-like system. F*ck, that thing could be a hologram for all I know.
