Pentagon unveils plans for operations centre to protect satellites from attack

Pentagon unveils plans for operations centre to protect satellites from attack | Daily Mail Online: "The Pentagon will open a ‘space war centre’ in six months to counter threats from China and Russia in Earth orbit.

Are wars in space on the horizon? While it probably won't be on the scale of the Death Star exploding in Star Wars (shown), the US is preparing to protect some of its assets in Earth orbit from attack, in order to keep its reconnaissance efforts on the ground intact

All US satellites will be monitored from the operations centre, the first time all the nation’s spy and military satellites will be tracked from a single location."
