It seems as though hackers were the ones behind the attack on two of Uncle Sam's satellites in 2007 and 2008, and they seem to hail from China – at least that is what a report which will be released next month from a congressional commission mentions. Apparently, the hackers managed to obtain access to the satellites via a ground station in Norway. These satellites' primary duty would be for climate and terrain monitoring.
Ubergizmo, China behind US satellite attack?
