The destructive nature of the creatures of Grimm severely limited the reliability of ground-based technologies.

'The concept of relay satellites orbiting around the planet was promising. Unfortunately, modern man has yet to make the technological advancements to achieve spaceflight, as all known Dust types lose their power as they begin to leave Remnant's atmosphere.'

Eventually, it was the people of Atlas, the world's leader in science and technology, that developed the Cross Continental Transmit system.

It says they lose power as it got out of the atmosphere, but doesn't say it regained it as it went back in.
