  2. #Skynet1A: #Military #Spacecraft Launched 56 Years Ago Has Been Moved By Persons Unknown
    The dead #satellite is supposed to remain in the #geostationary belt around 40° East.
    The spacecraft is not where it is supposed to be, according to what we know about orbits, now some 36,000 kilometers (22,369 miles) above the Americas. At some point in the intervening years, the satellite has likely been moved – but nobody appears to know when, who, or why.

  3. CW: Eavesdropping Unencrypted Satellites


    We pointed a commercial-off-the-shelf #satellite dish at the sky and carried out the most comprehensive public study to date of #geostationary satellite #communication. A shockingly large amount of sensitive traffic is being broadcast #unencrypted, including critical infrastructure, internal corporate and government communications, private citizens’ voice calls and SMS, and consumer Internet traffic from in-flight wifi and mobile…

  4. #ReOrbit, a #Finnish #startup, raised €45 million in a Series A funding round to provide #sovereignsatellite solutions. The company offers hardware and software for independent satellite operations, aiming to provide an affordable alternative to #Starlink. ReOrbit’s software core can operate both #geostationary and #lowearthorbit #satellites. techcrunch.com/2025/09/08/reor #tech #media #news

  5. The #SilentBarker #satellites 🛰️ will detect and continually track other objects in #geostationary #orbit. #Pentagon officials say there has been an escalation 📈 in "cat and mouse" games between #US 🇺🇸 satellites and those operated by #China 🇨🇳 and #Russia.🇷🇺 arstechnica.com/space/2023/08/

  6. #Astranis was founded in 📆 2015 to determine whether #microsatellites 🛰️ built largely in-house could deliver high-speed #Internet from #geostationary space at a low price 💵. Given that this was an effort to test this technology on a #shoestring budget, it is perhaps not surprising that the #satellite ultimately failed due to some unforeseen problem. arstechnica.com/space/2023/07/

  11. Satria-1 satellite launched using Falcon 9 rocket today at 05:21 UTC+07 from Cape Canaveral, Florida, US, to the geostationary orbit at 146° East.

  12. The Airbus-built Eutelsat #HOTBIRD 13G #satellite has reached its #geostationary orbit. A month after its twin satellite HOTBIRD13F, it completed its electric orbit raising in five months and used cameras to do visual checks to complement the comprehensive testing at its orbital position. While its twin was equipped with a black and white camera, HOTBIRD 13G, the eighth Airbus-built full-electric satellite, has a full colour device: airbus.com/en/newsroom/news/20 & twitter.com/AirbusSpace/status

  13. The modern #AtlasV #rocket, designed by #LockheedMarting and operated by the United Launch Alliance or #ULA, has been called the #DialARocket for its ability to add capacity by adding solid rocket boosters like increasing steps on a #dial.
    The “Dial” next goes up to 3 with the #Atlas V 431, with a 4 meter fairing, 3 #SRBs, and 1 engine on the #Centaur upper stage.

  16. A #photograph of a United Launch Alliance #ULA #AtlasV #rocket, in its 401 configuration, ascending into the blue #Florida sky.
    This Atlas V, with its 4 meter fairing, no solid rocket boosters, and a single #RL10 #engine on this #Centaur upper stage, is carrying a #Quasar #comsat for the National Reconnaissance Office #NRO. Quasar is believed to be the name for a network of communication #satellites that allow the NRO to maintain constant contact with its #spysats and #downlink data and #uplink tasks continuously.
    The system has satellites in both #geostationary and #Molniya #orbits.

  19. #OnThisDay in 2005, the first Galileo test satellite, the GIOVE-A, was launched. The European #Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service and #Galileo provide significant value to geospatial positioning and related applications: europa.eu/!rhBbx3 @EU4Space

  20. @dnsprincess The usual, turning radio waves (RF) into data for #osint food.
    Of late, that means refining the code to better get my satellite dish to track the damn #geostationary sat!
