Wow this is really scary to think about. I can’t help but wonder how many nation states are already aware of this issue. The ability to use a compromised satellite to crash into another is especially worrying. A government satellite could be secured and would still be susceptible to attack by another rogue satellite. I wonder how many critical government satellites are in LEO, since this issue seems to be scoped to only those

Can't wait to pwn a satellite. It'll look great on my stats page.
