WASHINGTON – North Korea now has two satellites orbiting over the United States capable of performing a surprise electromagnetic pulse attack at an altitude and trajectory that evade U.S. National Missile Defenses, a national security expert warned in an interview with Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.
Peter Vincent Pry told G2 Bulletin that the satellites can be commanded either to deorbit and hit a target on the ground or explode at a high altitude to create an EMP effect that would knock out the unprotected U.S. national electrical grid system and all life-sustaining critical infrastructures that depend on it.
“The threat,” Pry said, “continues to race, hare-like, at an alarming rate, compared to the tortoise pace of our preparations.”
The satellites – KMS 3-2 and KMS 4 – are orbiting at an altitude of 300 miles, with trajectories that put them daily over the U.S. KMS 3-2 was launched in December 2012 and KMS 4 was launched Feb. 7.
At such an altitude, an EMP could impact much of the continental United States, according to EMP experts.

This is reminiscent to the Cuban Missile Crisis and is much more threatening to our weakened nation thanks to an uninformed populace and having a spineless traitor in the White Hut.
Have we installed the attack/defense laser on the space station yet?
So? EMP is overblown Internet nerd hype.
“EMP is overblown Internet nerd hype.”
Yeah, you keep thinking that.
Let us know when the NORKs EMP the USA into the stone age, OK, kid?
“... trajectory that evade U.S. National Missile Defenses, ...” The US tracks objects as small a a hammer floating in space. Don’t believe anyone who says that another country can “evade” US tracking capabilities. And, the NoKo’s haven’t proven to be able to command their “rocks” to do anything in space. Don’t think that they can suddenly command these “rocks” to re-enter over a particular place.
Time for the X-37B to go on a mining mission.
Could you expand on this, please.
Exactly. The gang who can’t shoot straight is supposed to be able to do something this complex? I seriously doubt it.
“Could you expand on this, please. “
Not getting into a nerd pie fight.
Those sats have nukes?
If not, EMP is a dream.
We are indeed EMP vulnerable, but not from those things.
RU kidding? If Reagan was still president it might happen.
North Korean Satellite 'Tumbling in Orbit' US officials say.
It’s true. The idea that one or two nukes could knock out the entire electrical structure in America is just Prepper fiction.
Paging Bill Forstchen and nis novel “One Second After.”
Even if they were carrying nukes (which they aren’t) they’re not in stable orbits and can’t easily be controlled from the ground.

Agreed, Kim Jong Fat Boy can barely control his government, let alone a satellite 300 miles up.
-—satellites can be commanded either to deorbit and hit a target on the ground ——
LOL...
Of course the Norks can target DC hit the WH from a free falling destabilized satellite...
Makes for a great sci-fi movie...
