  1. #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.

  6. 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…

  10. #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

  15. These both passed #Earth today.

    Asteroid: 2023 VA, 6m-13m in diameter, just passed the Earth at 11km/s, missing by 26,800km.

    #Asteroid: 363505, 530m-1186m in diameter, just passed the Earth at 8km/s, missing by 5,250,000km.

    35,786 km up is how high #geostationary communications #satellites are. The #moon's orbit on average is only 385,000 km. We live in a shooting gallery. Many #asteroids have hit earth in the past. Many will hit in the future. We must backup Earth's #biosphere on #Mars.
