Source(s)?

• EuropeOverlords 3y ago
  what i did / did not do in my free time, 15 years ago i do not want to talk. is 20 year old tech hackable ? is not sourcable. what is done to satellites is not really possible to source, people need to work. and even bull is considered secret, proprietary etc.... for threat model: hybrid war is "new". " attacking infrastructure was considered war, full stop " this changed for some reason. american corporation have 4 pictures of "earth" everyday, in database, starting from 1996... and still even today, you can point antenna up and capture geostationary satellite pictures, not in that resolution tho. ( NOAA / old russian meteo satellites - this was not in threat model. source is point antenna up) im not talking about things like FLTSATCOM 7 and FLTSATCOM 8 which are known and covered by news. im not confused about what is telemetry, control, data, transponder, etc most nonmainstream things / themes are not "googleable". because hybrid war. hobbysite from 20 years ago - cqham.ru has some articles about "downloading" nonencrypted traffic from satellites with for todays standard, primitive equipment

    The specs are usually public for GEO meteo sats in particular (NOAA's, Elektro-L, etc), specifically for amateur enthusiasts to receive the photos; unencrypted downlink is easy with them. Controlling anything is another story.
