Soorry, assh*e, I was unsubscribed so I did not see it. Next time I will not post
interesting articles here.

Actually, I will continue to post intesting articles here just to piss you off.

JOHN FLEMING: THE SHOCKING MENACE OF SATELLITE
SURVEILLANCE

http://english.pravda.ru/main/2001/07/14/10131.html

Unknown to most of the world, satellites can perform astonishing and often
menacing feats. This should come as no surprise when one reflects on the
massive effort poured into satellite technology since the Soviet satellite
Sputnik, launched in 1957, caused panic in the U.S. A spy satellite can
monitor a person’s every movement, even when the “target” is indoors or
deep in the interior of a building or traveling rapidly down the highway in a
car, in any kind of weather (cloudy, rainy, stormy). There is no place to hide
on the face of the earth. It takes just three satellites to blanket the world with
detection capacity. Besides tracking a person’s every action and relaying the
data to a computer screen on earth, amazing powers of satellites include
reading a person’s mind, monitoring conversations, manipulating electronic
instruments and physically assaulting someone with a laser beam. Remote
reading of someone’s mind through satellite technology is quite bizarre, yet it
is being done; it is a reality at present, not a chimera from a futuristic
dystopia! To those who might disbelieve my description of satellite
surveillance, I’d simply cite a tried-and-true Roman proverb: Time reveals all
things (tempus omnia revelat).

As extraordinary as clandestine satellite powers are, nevertheless prosaic
satellite technology is much evident in daily life. Satellite businesses
reportedly earned $26 billion in 1998. We can watch transcontinental
television broadcasts “via satellite,” make long-distance phone calls relayed
by satellite, be informed of cloud cover and weather conditions through
satellite images shown on television, and find our geographical bearings with
the aid of satellites in the GPS (Global Positioning System). But behind the
facade of useful satellite technology is a Pandora’s box of surreptitious
technology. Spy satellites--as opposed to satellites for broadcasting and
exploration of space--have little or no civilian use--except, perhaps, to subject
one’s enemy or favorite malefactor to surveillance. With reference to
detecting things from space, Ford Rowan, author of Techno Spies, wrote
“some U.S. military satellites are equipped with infra-red sensors that can
pick up the heat generated on earth by trucks, airplanes, missiles, and cars,
so that even on cloudy days the sensors can penetrate beneath the clouds
and reproduce the patterns of heat emission on a TV-type screen. During the
Vietnam War sky high infra-red sensors were tested which detect individual
enemy soldiers walking around on the ground.” Using this reference, we can
establish 1970 as the approximate date of the beginning of satellite
surveillance--and the end of the possibility of privacy for several people.

The government agency most heavily involved in satellite surveillance
technology is the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA), an arm of
the Pentagon. NASA is concerned with civilian satellites, but there is no hard
and fast line between civilian and military satellites. NASA launches all
satellites, from either Cape Kennedy in Florida or Vandenberg Air Force
Base in California, whether they are military-operated, CIA-operated,
corporate-operated or NASA’s own. Blasting satellites into orbit is a major
expense. It is also difficult to make a quick distinction between government
and private satellites; research by NASA is often applicable to all types of
satellites. Neither the ARPA nor NASA makes satellites; instead, they
underwrite the technology while various corporations produce the hardware.
Corporations involved in the satellite business include Lockheed, General
Dynamics, RCA, General Electric, Westinghouse, Comsat, Boeing, Hughes
Aircraft, Rockwell International, Grumman Corp., CAE Electronics, Trimble
Navigation and TRW.

The World Satellite Directory, 14th edition (1992), lists about a thousand
companies concerned with satellites in one way or another. Many are merely
in the broadcasting business, but there are also product headings like
“remote sensing imagery,” which includes Earth Observation Satellite Co. of
Lanham, Maryland, Downl Inc. of Denver, and Spot Image Corp. of Reston,
Virginia. There are five product categories referring to transponders. Other
product categories include earth stations (14 types), “military products and
systems,” “microwave equipment,” “video processors,” “spectrum analyzers.”
The category “remote sensors” lists eight companies, including ITM Systems
Inc., in Grants Pass, Oregon, Yool Engineering of Phoenix, and Satellite
Technology Management of Costa Mesa, California. Sixty-five satellite
associations are listed from all around the world, such as Aerospace
Industries Association, American Astronautical Society, Amsat and several

JOHN FLEMING: THE SHOCKING MENACE OF SATELLITE SURVEILLANCE

Unknown to most of the world, satellites can perform astonishing and often
menacing feats. This should come as no surprise when one reflects on the
massive effort poured into satellite technology since the Soviet satellite
Sputnik, launched in 1957, caused panic in the U.S. A spy satellite can
monitor a person's every movement, even when the "target" is indoors or deep
in the interior of a building or travelling rapidly down the highway in a
car, in any kind of weather (cloudy, rainy, stormy). There is no place to
hide on the face of the earth. It takes just three satellites to blanket the
world with detection capacity. Besides tracking a person's every action and
relaying the data to a computer screen on earth, amazing powers of
satellites include reading a person's mind, monitoring conversations,
manipulating electronic instruments and physically assaulting someone with a
laser beam. Remote reading of someone's mind through satellite technology is
quite bizarre, yet it is being done; it is a reality at present, not a
chimera from a futuristic dystopia! To those who might disbelieve my
description of satellite surveillance, I'd simply cite a tried-and-true
Roman proverb: Time reveals all things (tempus omnia revelat).

Probably the most sinister aspect of satellite surveillance, certainly its
most stunning, is mind-reading. As early as 1981, G. Harry Stine (in his
book Confrontation in Space), could write that computers have "read" human
minds by means of deciphering the outputs of electroencephalographs (EEGs).
Early work in this area was reported by the Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency (DARPA) in 1978. EEG's are now known to be crude sensors of
neural activity in the human brain, depending as they do upon induced
electrical currents in the skin.

Magnetoencephalographs (MEGs) have since been developed using highly
sensitive electromagnetic sensors that can directly map brain neural
activity even through even through the bones of the skull. The responses of
the visual areas of the brain have now been mapped by Kaufman and others at
Vanderbilt University. Work may already be under way in mapping the neural
activity of other portions of the human brain using the new MEG techniques.
It does not require a great deal of prognostication to forecast that the
neural electromagnetic activity of the human brain will be totally mapped
within a decade or so and that crystalline computers can be programmed to
decipher the electromagnetic neural signals.

In 1992, Newsweek reported that "with powerful new devices that peer through
the skull and see the brain at work, neuroscientists seek the wellsprings of
thoughts and emotions, the genesis of intelligence and language. They hope,
in short, to read your mind." In 1994, a scientist noted that "current
imaging techniques can depict physiological events in the brain which
accompany sensory perception and motor activity, as well as cognition and
speech." In order to give a satellite mind-reading capability, it only
remains to put some type of EEG-like-device on a satellite and link it with
a computer that has a data bank of brain-mapping research. I believe that
surveillance satellites began reading minds--or rather, began allowing the
minds of targets to be read--sometime in the early 1990s. Some satellites in
fact can read a person's mind from space.
