Sounds about right. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_911 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_911 I'm guessing the phone reaching satellite operates similarly to a phone reaching cell networks. It attaches GPS coordinates and then the 911 system does the rest. Just hope if I'm in this situation I'm not actually in the water and not having to fight my screen while it's getting wet. And that I kept my battery charged.
