A satellite orbits Earth along a path modeled by the ellipse \( \frac{x^2}{100} + \frac{y^2}{64} = 1 \). If the satellite’s signal covers a circular region of radius 8 units centered at the origin, what is the maximum number of points from the orbit that the signal reaches (accounting for intersections)?
