We are at an unusually good moment for the US in space and it won t last Brookings Institution fellow Michael O Hanlon told the US House armed services subcommittee on Tuesday. It can t last. US Global Positioning System satellites and commercial telecommunications satellites already face jamming from low-tech weapons on the ground. But a looming threat said witnesses is a weapon launched into space to directly attack a satellite or to detonate a nuclear device that could fry the electronics of many satellites at once Such an attack could cripple US military capability and also affect day-to-day civilian life. For example credit card transactions are authorised through satellite communications links and most cable channels are beamed down to Earth through satellites. We don t worry as much about nuclear attacks on our satellites as we used to and I think that s a mistake O Hanlon says. Source http Copyright by Ec-Council All Rights Reserved.
