and why was a satellite staring at this particular plane? or Egypt for that matter? they just cant stop snooping on others can they
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70565369 America and Russia both have satellites that monitor the globe for missile launches, it's a leftover from the Cold War when we were watching for a nuclear first strike. The infrared signature of a missile or explosion is easy to detect from space... emissions in the IR spectrum travel through the atmosphere much better than visible light.
