That's the nature of satellite orbits.
These aren't geostationary satellites - they fly around the entire planet.

A geostationary satellite would orbit at an altitude of 22,000 miles, and these satellites were orbiting at an altitude of 220 miles.

These satellites fly over the entire globe. They don't "hover" above any particular location. Only a geostationary satellite can do that.
