According to a spokesman for the National Security Council, the ground-based, medium-range ballistic missile knocked an old Chinese weather satellite from its orbit about 537 miles above Earth. The missile carried a "kill vehicle" and destroyed the satellite by ramming it. The test took place on January 11. (

86. Jupiter Satellite Events Times for eclipse, occultation, transit, and shadow events. http://www.projectpluto.com/jevent.htm

Jupiter satellite events and GRS times for 2008 Following are times for the shadow, transit, occultation, and eclipse events for Jupiter's four major satellites over the above time period. All times are in Universal Time (UT) All of these tables were generated with Guide 8.0 , which provides a pretty simple way to create tables of satellite events and/or Great Red Spot transits for a specific period. ( Click here for a table of Great Red Spot transit times Alternatively, this site provides up-to-date Jupiter observations and transit times. In fact, this is the site I used to get the current longitude of the GRS, for use in computing the transit times. Some C/C++ source code, and a DOS executable, for computing tables of Jovian events can be downloaded from this site. Also, Akkana Peck has provided a Jovian moon/shadow transit program in Java, with source. The Web site of the R.A.S.N.Z. (Royal Astronomical Society of New Zealand) Occultation Section has data on Jovian satellite events, as well as some discussion of how to best time such events and where your timing data should be reported. (This really does matter, by the way. These observations are still used for adjusting satellite ephemerides, though the "mutual events" are slightly better for that purpose.)

International Weather Satellite Images ...links to satellite images around the Internet with frames Maintained by L. David Baron . Last updated 2002-04-03 (April 3, 2002). This site is a listing of satellite images and movies taken by weather satellites around the globe. I have links to satellite pictures at other sites that are well known around the weather community and links to those that are practically unknown. Some of the pictures, especially those in visible light, offer stunning views of the Earth. Looking at weather satellite images gives you a chance to see weather events on a large scale. One can see the development of hurricanes, large frontal systems, the daily cycles of thunderstorms, and the repetitive weather patterns that cover many parts of the globe. Different images have different purposes, and some are easier to understand than others, but they all have important information about the world's weather. Contents Global and Regional Composite Images European and African Satellite Images Asian and Australian Satellite Images Archives of Satellite Images ... Information About This Site Quick Satellite Images - a very small sampling of images These images are only eight of the thousands of images on the page. They just happen to be the ones I look at most often, and I think they may also be the most useful to others.

88. Chinese Anti-Satellite Capabilities On 17 January 2007 Craig Covault, writing in Aviation Week Space Technology, reported that China conducted a successful antisatellite (ASAT) weapons test http://www.globalsecurity.org/space/world/china/asat.htm

The ASAT was launched from or near the Xichang Space Center , and intercepted the target at an altitude of variously reported as either 530 or 537 miles. This altitude is consistent with the operational altitudes of American and Japanese imagery intelligence satellites. "The U.S. believes China's development and testing of such weapons is inconsistent with the spirit of cooperation that both countries aspire to in the civil space area," National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe said. "We and other countries have expressed our concern regarding this action to the Chinese." China does not have a publicly acknowledged dedicated anti-satellite effort. Existing Chinese launch capabilities could provide the basis for the development of such a system. The missile used for the 17 January 2007 test was not immediately identified. National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe said the ASAT was launched on a ground-based medium-range ballistic missile. This would probably be the
