I think this song fits in with the other sci fi themes on the album. In this song i think he's looking toward a future, in with our souls, or consciousness are embodied in computers.
In the song " i got a reason #2 ", he alludes to a similar idea, that the satallites are the " last noah's ark ", containing what's left of a dead earth.
I also think the " columns of purple light " in the jungle, might be this noahs ark concept again, where spaceships are collecting species from the jungle, to preserve for the future.
Conor sings " I'll come back eventually ", suggesting that biological life will resurface again and again.
