British, Norwegian and American maritime forces confronted Russian vessels preparing to undertake an exercise to test a new device for cutting undersea fiber optic cables.

The confrontation happened near Svalbard, (north of Norway/Sweden and east of Greenland) where two fiber-optic cables extend for about 1,400km and are ~2,700 meters underwater.

Those lines support data transfers from SvalSat, a major satellite ground facility that also serves NASA’s Near Space Network in orbit. https://www.techradar.com/pro/nato-prevented-russia-from-cutting-a-critical-undersea-cable-using-a-tool-that-leaves-no-traceable-fingerprints-on-fibre-optic-wires-1-400km-long-lines-are-part-of-nasas-near-space-network #FibreOptics #UnderSeaCables #Russia #NATO #NASA #SatelliteData #SvalSat #Data #Britain #Norway #USA
