Not sure about other blockchains but with Bitcoin, you only need one node to connect via satellite and the chain is good. In fact, there are satellites that broadcast blocks from space (no ISP required). [0]

Also BTC has a very conservative 10 minute block time that protects to some extent against a network partition (there is time to recover)
