Once the pad was cleared I had a very odd thought "I wonder if the Israelis took out insurance on that satellite" Ha! Is that even possible?

There was insurance on the satellite. I think it was around $200 million.

I think ALL of their launches are insured. At least every one that's failed so far was.
