It was no coincidence that these particular antennas were set on fire. They provide the backbone communications link to these satellites. The same thing happened to similar antennas in Poland at the end of September. According to Bulgarian MP Ivaylo Mirchev, these stations provided backbone connectivity to satellites, including for Ukraine. #Bulgaarias #hübriidsõda #Starlink (translated)
a little less than 400 satellites in orbit in total, which is enough to start providing the service. At the beginning of September, it had "a little less than 400 satellites in orbit in total, which is enough to start providing the service," according to Chris Weber, a manager at Amazon Leo. #Ariane6 #AmazonLeo #LancementSatellite (translated)

Many people have a wrong idea about what US intelligence sharing with Ukraine is. In reality it's largely early warnings about air strikes so Ukrainians can seek shelter. This requires US satellites. But it looks like Trump might have instructed his military to stop giving Ukrainians that warning.
The article addresses the geopolitical challenge of establishing a common time standard for the Moon, essential for coordinating lunar missions and controlling satellites, due to the differences in the perception of time between the Earth and the Moon. #Géopolitique #Lune #Horloge (translated)
The post compared Elon Musk’s 2026 challenge to India through satellites, technology and competition with Commodore Perry’s 1853 arrival in Japan, which it said had forced the country to confront the outside world. It ended with an unfinished sentence about India. https://t.co/nga0nHcQkQ #ElonMusk #DigitalIndia #Technology #IN #JP
Joan Larroumec presented the tensions between France and Germany as a result of increasing competition, particularly in the defense industry. He indicated that Berlin planned military spending of €108 billion in 2026, compared to €57 billion for Paris, and nearly €140 billion in 2027. According to him, Germany was seeking to use these expenditures as a lever for economic transformation, while its historical industrial model was weakened. Larroumec notably cited the decline in German exports to China, which he claimed fell from €106 billion in 2022 to €81 billion in 2025, as well as a reduction of 142,400 jobs in the German automotive industry since 2019. He also wrote that German defense start-ups had received $3.5 billion in investments in 2026, compared to $375 million in France, and that Berlin had concluded a framework agreement with Helsing and Stark that could reach €4.3 billion. He estimated that this strategy heightened rivalries between the two countries and jeopardized their joint programs. He reported that Paris and Berlin acknowledged on June 8 that the SCAF could not be successfully executed, and that the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces announced Germany's abandonment of the MGCS tank program. He also mentioned competition in drones, artificial intelligence, and space, where, according to him, Germany was seeking to reduce France's position. Finally, Larroumec argued that France's financial difficulties limited its ability to invest in defense and risked weakening its industry. He stated that French and German interests were becoming increasingly misaligned and that this situation could lead to chaotic episodes in Europe. #France #Allemagne #Défense (translated)
