EMP Attack: China Simulates Nuclear Blast Against Starlink Satellites In Near-Earth Orbit

It appears China doesn't like Elon's Starlink satellites. Any EMP set off like that would knock out electronics below the blast site.


EMP Attack: China Simulates Nuclear Blast Against Starlink Satellites In Near-Earth Orbit
"Oct 23, 2022 - A nuclear blast in near space could create a radioactive cloud over an area as big as New York state, crippling or destroying satellites in near-Earth orbit, according to a new computer simulation conducted by a team of Chinese military scientists.

At the Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology, a research institute run by the People’s Liberation Army in Xian, researchers developed a model that can evaluate the performance of nuclear anti-satellite weapons at different altitudes and yields with unprecedented detail and accuracy.

The simulation results suggest that a 10-megaton warhead – modestly powerful by today’s standards – could create a serious threat to satellites if it detonates at an altitude of 80km (50 miles)."
