. MILITARY COMMUNICATIONS China suspect in US satellite interference: report by Staff Writers Washington (AFP) Oct 27, 2011 NASA satellites were interfered with four separate times in 2007 and 2008, possibly by the Chinese military, according to a draft of an upcoming report for the US Congress. The latest draft of the report by the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission said the computer hackers behind the interference gained the ability to issue commands to one of the satellites on two occasions. The targeted satellites are used for observation of the earth's climate and terrain, according to the report to be submitted to Congress on November 16. A copy of the latest draft of the report was obtained by AFP on Thursday. It said the account of the interference with the satellites came from a May 2011 briefing for the Commission by the US Air Force. The hackers appear to have exploited the information systems of the Svalbard Satellite Station (SvalSat), a commercially operated satellite ground station in Spitsbergen, Norway, to gain access to the satellites, the report said.
From: Moscow (AFP) Feb 14, 2011
The Russian space agency suggested Monday that a foreign power may have been behind the space accident that disabled one of the country's most modern military satellites earlier this month.
Russia on February 1 launched a high-tech Geo-IK-2 craft to help the military draw a three-dimensional map of the Earth and locate the precise positions of various targets.
News reports said the satellite was a vital part of Russia's effort to match the United States and NATO's ability to target its missiles from space.
But the craft briefly went missing after its launch only to re-emerge in a wrong orbit that left the craft unable to complete its assigned task.

I realize countries will spy on each other but China takes the cake when it comes to corporate/military espionage. Why do I never hear of the US doing this to China on the same scale?

I'm getting tired of saying it, but China is the enemy, we've given them too much leeway, too much of our technology, and been too lax in protecting ourselves from their undue influence. I think the reason is that the NWO now sees the Chinese model as the perfect way to maintain their elite and have the rest of us powerless and just trying to keep ourselves fed.
