Satellite is the second album by Welsh progressive rock band Panic Room. This album saw the band retreat somewhat from the very 'progressive' approach to their debut album Visionary Position and the result is a more cohesive, song-orientated album.

The album was recorded at Sonic One Studios in Wales by Tim Hamill and the artwork was designed and created by Teslin Davies.

Pre-orders of the album were released in 2009. A special edition, complete with a bonus disc containing four extra songs is available exclusively from the band's own website and at live concerts. The single disc retail version was released on 25 January 2010.^[2] This was the final album to feature the original lineup, as Alun Vaughan left the band during the summer of 2010.^[3]
