Highly classified US spy satellite appears to be a total loss after SpaceX launch?
Sounds like a perfect spy movie?
https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/08/high...ex-launch.html Now there is a spy satellite that exists which it shouldn't have? Or now the gov has billions to spend on secret "off the table" item now that its burnt up with a fake satellite that they can't talk about? :D

First rule of spy satellite club is you don't talk about spy satellite club.

 As I suspected... You were involved in this club!  Yup! Another Highly Classified Program we may have never known about is brought to light. What the heck, only $1B!

I have always thought the most important news stories are likely not on page 1 of the paper or the lead on websites, but lower level stories people tend not to pay attention to that can have great significance later. This satellite being destroyed may be very bad news indeed. I wonder what it was designed to investigate and spy upon?

They want us to think a classified spy satellite was a total loss.

It's very easy to track satellites with web apps.

Defense budget is just shy of 700 billion for 2018. I think we will be fine.
