Great thread Slayer S&F, one thing I keep hearing over and over is "how great the US has advanced" and "wow, and this is only what they let us know about". The thing to also remember is, countries like Russia and China DON'T tell the media what they have or are developing so for all we know they could both have WAY better stuff. Not to mention that China does not report its actual millitary budget numbers, and has far better tech/science R&D than most other countries on the planet.

Notice the above patch has many stars on the scorpions back and appears to be plucking other stars with it's two pinchers?
She'll intercept and route information from polar-orbiting photo reconnaissance spacecraft to ground receivers. The U.S. has a polar orbiting satellite that passes above both of the earth's poles on each revolution and is in a low earth orbit. The only difference is that a satellite in polar orbit travels a north-south direction, rather than the more common east-west direction.
The super-secret spy satellites can view the entire plantet's surface. As she orbits above us in a north-south direction, the Earth is spinning beneath in an east-west direction. The result? Our NSA bird will eventually scan the the entire surface. Its like pealing an orange in one piece. Around and around, one strip at a time, until we have incredible and detailed data on any point on Earth. The NSA bird will, literally, monitor the world stage.

I simply find the staggering volume of "classified:top secret" information as overkill and break my head sometimes trying to understand why this is necesary. I am sure other knowledgable folks will agree with me here.
I agree for the most part but. This information is only what they'll release and allow the public to know about.
Just imagine the stuff they don't allow
Q -- Are there any other security level names [other than 'secret' - 'top secret' - 'ultra']?
A -- There are many other security clearances, here are a few, UMBRA, STELLAR, G2-7Z, TRIAD, UMT [Universal Military Training] and UMS [Universal Military Service], ASTRAL and SUB-ASTRAL. UMBRA is higher than ULTRA (Note: It may be conceivable that some of the higher security clearances are used for the joint human-alien interstellar projects. For instance Whitley Streiber described an abduction to another planetary sphere where he encountered ancient ruins, aliens and human personnel dressed in military kackies and carrying camcorders, automatic weapons, etc. Obviously such personnel would have to possess an extremely high security classification, such as "Universal Military Service" for instance? The joint alien-illuminati "alternative-3" projects have reportedly taken part in joint offensive operations against the peaceful residents of other worlds, this according to a couple who 'defected' from the alternative-3 movement after an agent from the 'Federation' warned them about such atrocities. - Branton)

No wonder the US is in the state it is in, though there other countries aren’t much better off and some even worse.
