                                    How a  Mission Starts
•Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) set off by plane crashing, or Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) goes off when ship sinks or when either is accidentally set off
                           –97 to 99 percent of all ELT missions are false alarms
•SARSAT or COSPAS receives the signal
•The satellite transmits the mirror locations of the target to a Local User Terminal (LUT)
