US says Russia likely launched anti-satellite weapon
The US says Russia launched a satellite last week which it believes may be capable of attacking other such probes.
"Russia launched a satellite into low Earth orbit that we assess is likely a counter space weapon," said Pentagon spokesman Brig Gen Pat Ryder on Tuesday evening.
It was on the "same orbit" as a US government satellite, he said, adding that Washington would continue to monitor the situation and had to be ready to protect its interests.

余談だけど、日本の宇宙関連株で相場は騒いでいるけど、結局大きなシステムの中の一部を切り取ってマネタイズしているだけだから、いずれは衰退するのは明らか。相場の玩具として遊ぶのはいいけど、そんなのに税金をつぎ込む政府官僚は判っていてやっているんでしょうね~~。
