    On Sunday I went to see the beloved Carolina Panthers get their lunch money stolen, sand kicked in their faces and their collective girlfriends lured away by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This is not a rare thing, sadly, though it was extremely...

    This is all extremely poor data and inadequate equipment in my opinion. Post the gps or goggle earth coordinates, if you dont want to share that, thats fine maybe just state that. You have to remember this is basically a rifle scope if aimed at...

    Yes! Many different types in fact. And Russia was almost certainly doing that here. ICEYE-x36 is itself a spy satellite. "Earth observation" is a general term for ground photography, but ICEYE isn't updating Google maps or doing river surveys...

    Inspecting and mechanically interfering with the satellites of other nations was examined in a recent episode of the PBS program NOVA. Space Wars A transcript is available on the same page if you don't wish to watch the video

    My wife and I were watching the TV series Special Ops: Lioness and Taylor Sheridan's national security officials were telling both subordinates and suspects right and left (eh, just The Left, really) who were taking money from foreign governments...

    Though what constitutes any crime is something for the criminal justice system to decide, and their decisions sometimes surprise me, I'd say "no." Treason is very tightly defined in the US Constitution: Article III Judicial Branch...

    It's probably not too wild an idea to assume the Russian sat carries a sensor suite onboard to track other objects nearby and autonomously derive navigational information for close-proximity ops, which would kind of render the entire argument...

    I find the claim that Russia couldn't do this on their own dubious. First, there's no stealth in space (orbital launches are pretty spectacular but surprisingly predictable things) and multiple civilian and government entities track and share...
