MOSCOW - Russia has lost contact with most of its civilian satellites as well as the Russian part of the International Space Station after a communications cable broke in Moscow, state-run RIA news agency reported on Wednesday, citing an unnamed source.

What? One little screw-up and ya lose your job over there? Sheesh. Pretty particular, aren't they?

But then, over here, no one loses their job over anything...not even TREASON! Usually, they get a promotion.

Personally, I like the way China handles problems. Especially when some corporate executive is put to death if his company happens to poison a lot of people. They end that shit real quick. Cause harm to the people, and you're dead. Great deterrent.

Oh yeah...forgot about that. Wasn't there something recently about Stuxnet blowing back on US systems or some other unintended victim nation?

Not saying Stux is the Russian problem though. I would have thought they would have hardened up for that.

They did a great job arranging the Benghazi operation that put a sudden stop to arms shipments into Syria via Turkey though. And no public fingerprints either! Those Russians are a wily bunch. They managed to blow the arms supply operation AND throw our government into more turmoil.

Not sure, but I doubt this was Stux, but, it is NOT a broken cable!

Very serious situation.

Or, something else. a piece of cheese in a mouse trap?

It is spreading. Something strange is happening. I work for one of the largest telcoms here and we are having serious problems with ground and space coms. It is not showing up at consumer level, yet, because we are rerouting traffic (hurts latency though so the net here is slower than usual), but if the strange problems get worse, we are in deep shit. WTF is going on?

Re: BREAKING! Russia Loses All Communications with Satellites and the ISS!!!
I guess this makes sense - then again, what would they say:



"What happened is in no way related to the work being done by our specialists with the air and space defence forces," the source told RIA Novosti.

"Communications with the military satellites continue as always," the source said.

Tentacles are coming from the galactic ribbon causing disruptions wherever they may hit in our area of space, and other area's. This is not the first time i heard about this type of disruption recently and not the first time this was mentioned. I have a feeling this is closer to the truth than some may think.
