A Chinese military analyst suggested that Beijing should develop countermeasures for the Starlink satellite system developed by Elon Muskâs SpaceX â including ways to hack or even destroy the service during a time of conflict.
In a recent paper published in a China-based academic journal called Modern Defense Technology, analyst Ren Yuanzhen argued that Chinaâs military needs to develop the capability of tracking each of the thousands of satellites set to comprise the Starlink constellations in the coming years.
Renâs paper noted that Starlink could be a key resource for the US military, both as a means of providing internet connectivity for troops and as a source of intelligence through satellite imagery.
