#1: The circumference of the earth at the equator is 24,902 mi / 40,076 km.
#2: Most satellites run in between 16,000 and 30,000 kms.
#3: The distance to the Moon as measured from the centre of the Earth is 
       393,400 kms.

So your server is located somewhere between Earth's satellites and the moon.

Secret lair anyone?
