Russia threatens to blow up Musk's satellites

In a recent broadcast, he (Vladimir Solovyo) said: "I don't understand why, for example, Elon Musk's satellites are not a legitimate target for us."

He explained: "One nuclear weapon detonation in space, as I understand it, solves this problem."

In terms of Starlink, it's how Russian troops access the internet, and now that they've been been blocked, it puts them at a disadvantage in terms of the Russian-Ukraine conflict.

Holy Moly, Batman! Elon is putting himself on the wrong side of the Kremlin. Is he risking a nasty email from trump? Can Russia really blow up his satellites and if they did, would it start a war in space?

One nuclear explosion in space should make the entire world declare war on Russia.

Russians sound just like DemoKKKrats.

Putin knows that if he violates The Outer Space Treaty (1967): The "constitution" of space law, he will open a can of worms.
There is no single international treaty that explicitly outlaws the shooting down of satellites using conventional weapons. While space law restricts certain behaviors, current regulations focus more on weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and "peaceful use" than on prohibiting anti-satellite (ASAT) attacks.

Good luck

Well that would make deployment of satalights nearly impossible til about the end of time. That would be ultra stupid but we are talking about Putin.

I wonder how good Musk's aim is? They would not get all of them, and I'm thinking that having several million satellites landing at terminal velocity at his roof, or at all of their major cities, all two of them might be the outcome he'd want.

Then there is the USA's significant nuclear arsenal.

If Poootin thinks he is going out, why not take everyone with him?

It could end civilization, as we know it.

If a nuclear warhead detonated in low-Earth orbit, it would send EMPs along a wide swath of the planet's electromagnetic field, which could shut down electricity for entire continents. If you thought the consequences of satellite destruction seemed bad, this would be exponentially worse.

You hate America so much you're rooting for Russia to destroy Musk's satellites because Musk has been an ally of Trump.

Got it.

What Happens if a Nuke Goes Off in Space?

Russia may be planning to put a nuclear weapon in orbit. We have known since the 1960s why that is a bad idea

www.scientificamerican.com

It is currently uncertain whether Russia’s pursuit of a space-based nuke is actually a serious project. “What’s not clear is [whether] this is [just some] PowerPoint by some general in the Strategic Rocket Forces or a seriously funded program,” McDowell says. And it may exist only as a scare tactic, without any real intention of being used, because of its apocalyptic implications. “I’m skeptical that [the Russian government has] a serious operational plan to fire nukes in a conflict in space,” he says.

Russia is a failed state. Its fiasco in Ukraine is a generational embarrassment, their economy is in the shitter with petroleum income dramaticallly down, they produce almost nothing and what they make is crap. The only thing they have is threatening a nuclear attack of some kind. Once they actually do it, Russia will promptly be obliterated and they know it. But not every national leader is a ***** like those in the EU.

I know this they do it it will likely take down all the satalights. Say good bye to gps. I spend most my time on the water. I don't want to go back to charting. It is a pain with no waves. Charting accurately while you are rolling on a rough day is a real pain in the ass. Now when I fish a reef I am with in a few foot accuracy. Makes pretty easy. I don't want to go back to the old way.

I get it. He is the type. Most people think about leaving a legacy for the next gen but not ole Putty.

The EU smells of estrogen, doesn't it? Weak.

The question remains..... Did the U.S. employ and put into orbit the "Rods of God" ?
I wonder if Putin is considering that?

The damage a orbital nuclear attack would be much more devastating than just losing GPS. The immediate effects would be crippling. But the attack would set off a chain of events that could, very well, lead to the end of life as we know it.

Russia is becoming more and more of a rouge state each day. But rouge states that feel their future is in dire straights are capable of atrocities such as this. I hope the US is taking this threat seriously.

No need for nukes.
Look up "The Rods of God" Eleven to twelve minutes from launch to target.

That's always a possibility.
Putin is considered a Megalomaniac. Some say there's a doomsday bomb somewhere under the Arctic Ice.
Reports of a Russian "doomsday bomb" under the Arctic ice primarily refer to the Poseidon 2M39 (also known as "Status-6" or "Kanyon"), a nuclear-powered, autonomous underwater vehicle designed to deliver devastating strikes.
Purpose: The weapon is designed to destroy coastal cities and infrastructure by creating a large radioactive tidal wave.
Context: It is part of Russia's modernized nuclear arsenal, often referred to in the West as a "doomsday" weapon, often associated with the modernization of the Russian navy's nuclear capabilities in the Arctic region.

If Russia nukes the west's satellites, we'll nuke theirs.
