The space is turning into the next frontier for the high-end confrontations between nations. And in this new battlefield, the ability to target enemy satellites has become a big priority.
Recently, documents from the Discord Leak have shed light on this theme, and I wrote about it here on TGP. You can read more in Space War: Chinese Plan To Disrupt Enemy Satellites’ Comms in the Event of Conflict.
But this is far from pure speculation, but rather a reality that’s literally orbiting above our heads. Fears have been arising that the Chinese have developed a self-propelled, highly maneuverable Spaceplane that can be used to do precisely that.
The Drive reported:
“Private space services company LeoLabs says its data shows a Chinese reusable space vehicle, believed to be a miniature spaceplane design, docked with or otherwise captured a separate object on multiple occasions during its recent 276-day-long stint in orbit. A highly maneuverable space vehicle with this kind of capability could be used to surveil, disrupt and outright attack an opponent’s space-based assets, as well as retrieve or otherwise interact with friendly ones.”
In a post from LeoLabs on Twitter:
“Since its launch on 4 August 2022, we observed multiple large maneuvers raising the object’s altitude — as well as repeated deployments, formation flying, and docking of a sub-satellite Object J (NORAD ID 54218).”
The mysterious space vehicle landed back on Earth on Monday May 8th, in a mission that’s shrouded in mystery as is always the case in the Chinese space program.

Or Bush. All traitors.
Coming soon, billions spent on dog fights in space...yummy!!!
Coming soon: The US grid goes down thanks to Chinese weapons in space.
why the big deal our x37b has ben in orbit from may 2020 its still in orbit
Gonna happen anyway, Pedo Joe is letting thousands of Chineee military into the country as we type.
Yes.
90% of the invaders are military age. Some of them are part of terrorist cells and they are getting organized. When the cells are activated, look out.
No unmanned looks like a minnie shuttle
That’s correct!
Probably just an EMP weapon test. No biggie.
Yes very cool looking too
It takes fuel to maneuver in space. What is it using, and is it able to launch with sufficient for 276 days of activity involving maneuvers in space?
Clearly, their DEI strategies have paid off in the space program...
Probably new technological fuel we gave them or that they stole from us .
Thanks, Dhimmicraps.
All this brought to you by the Clintons.
Indeed it is!
