The satellite communication systems require updates. Those systems are too easy to jam. Jamming the satellite communication systems is possible. By sending a radio transmission that denies those satellites from communicating with customers. Another way is to destroy those satellites. By using anti-satellite weapons, ASAT. Those ASAT missiles can be giant versions of the anti-radiation missiles. Used in many aircraft. The new ASAT missiles can be large-sized, silo-based systems. That can destroy a targeted satellite even in the highest trajectories. 

The jammer drones. That can also act as a swarm. It can also be used. to deny communication between satellites and ground stations. Jammers and jammer-drones can also operate in hybrid operations to cheat targeted countries and communities.  The problem with jammer drones is that. They are basically legal. Those systems are quite easy to make. Their creator doesn’t need any kind of explosives. Those jammer systems can also jam wireless communication tools. These are used for civil purposes. And the GPS used in cash-in-transit can also be vulnerable to jammer systems.

The lesson from Ukraine is that satellite communication must be shut down immediately. Without that tool, controlling troops and their equipment is harder. And China simulates technology for large-area GPS and satellite jamming systems. 

During electronic warfare simulations. Chinese researchers created a swarm of 2000 drones and controlled them to create a non-centralised attack and jamming mission against the Starlink system. Starlink communication systems. Can offer communication abilities over long distances.  That makes it possible. To control troops and unmanned systems. Like drones over long distances. 

Jammer drones can shut down those communication tools. The problem with fixed jammer stations and jammer vehicles is that they are targets for anti-radiation missiles. Drones can move all the time.  And that makes those systems harder targets for anti-radiation missiles. If those drones use plutonium batteries. They can operate for a long time. Drones can cover large areas. And even if they have no explosives. Drones can disturb air operations. 


Drone swarms. Those send jammer signals in the WLAN. and long-distance communication frequencies are flexible and fast-moving tools.  Those systems are required for large-scale jamming operations. That can be done against all kinds of data infrastructure. This thing can also be done. By using remote-controlled systems. That means those drones can hide in a ship or on a roller coaster. The large-scale jammer systems can cause trouble. 

They can jam radars. Wireless communication. and other kinds of things. In hybrid operations, the purpose is to cheat targets. Flying drone swarms above the airfields. Can stop traffic. The opponent can deny landings and lift-off from some airfields.  The quadcopter can also be used as an anti-radiation system. The drone must only find the radio source and then make a kamikaze attack against those objects. But the problem with the unarmed jammer drones is this. 

Explosive detectors don’t find those drones. It’s possible that drones can wait even months in that area. When they get an order to start their missions, they can begin the jamming missions. That order can be installed on one of those drones. Then that drone will be sent over the operational area. And it sends the wake-up signal to other drones. This system is a modified version of the system. That was created to launch. The Russian ICBM missiles. The idea is that. The missile with a high-power radio transmitter will be launched into the atmosphere. There, the rocket sends the launch codes to other missiles. In that case, the drone. That launched from some ship or aircraft. Will send a signal. That activates drones or other jammer tools. Those systems are used in hybrid operations. Their mission would be: “This could be a bomb”. 

This ability means. The attackers can smuggle thousands of drones to the targeted countries. Then they can give those drones orders to begin their missions by using satellite communication. In some visions. The attackers can use civil electronics that get updates from the hostile country to jam wireless communications. When those laptops, tablets. And mobile telephones get the update, which activates those WLAN systems. And other communication tools. 

Those systems can send electronic screaming to WLAN routers. And then burden communication lines. That thing might make communications slower. But the problem is that. It’s possible that the 2000 quadcopters are hidden in some roller coasters. Then those drones are coming. Near a communication outpost. Those drones rise airborne. And start to send microwaves to that data and radio links. Those drones. That weighing less than a kilogram can jam the communication lines. Those systems can be activated by using a system that activates them. At a certain GPS point.

Starlink is a more multipurpose tool than nobody expected.



"What if Starlink could track climate change? Scientists just proved it’s possible — using its signals to monitor Earth’s shifting gravity and weather patterns. Now, they’re fine-tuning the tech for even more precision." (ScitechDaily, Scientists Just Found a Hidden Climate Tracker in Starlink’s Signals – And It’s a Game Changer)

"By using the Doppler effect, scientists have found a way to analyze signals from Starlink and similar networks, revealing insights into climate, sea levels, and weather patterns. Precision is still a challenge, but the potential for global observation is enormous."(ScitechDaily, Scientists Just Found a Hidden Climate Tracker in Starlink’s Signals – And It’s a Game Changer)

The satellites can transmit information. But they can also collect hidden information. Secondary, or hidden data forms when those signals travel through magnetic fields. And different types of chemical compounds. When a radio signal impacts some atom or chemical compound. The thing stores energy in it. When the energy level is high enough, that atom sends an energy impulse. Can make changes or disturb radio transmissions. 

The same way the size of gas components scatters radio waves. Those things require that satellite must calibrate their systems. In those cases, satellites store that data in their memories. That data can uncover new things from the atmosphere.  

Theoretically, it is possible to use Starlink as the global satellite surveillance platform. Just like other radio transmitters the radar systems use radio waves. So it's possible, to connect radar and radio data transmitter into one antenna.

"NASA and the Italian Space Agency achieved a historic milestone on March 3 when the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE) became the first technology demonstration to detect and track Earth-based navigation signals on the Moon’s surface." (ScitechDaily, GPS on the Moon? NASA’s Historic Breakthrough Just Changed Space Travel)

"LuGRE’s success in both lunar orbit and on the surface confirms that signals from the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) can be received and utilized at the Moon. This breakthrough could enable future missions, including NASA’s Artemis program, to autonomously determine their position, velocity, and time with greater accuracy. It also lays the groundwork for more advanced navigation systems on both the Moon and Mars." (ScitechDaily, GPS on the Moon? NASA’s Historic Breakthrough Just Changed Space Travel)

The Earth-orbital-based GPS can also theoretically operate on the moon. That system uses the cloud of the Earth-orbiting satellites as the giant telescope that can operate as one large antenna. The system determines the location signal angle of each satellite. And that satellite cloud can locate crafts from the moon. But the cloud of miniaturized communication satellites orbiting the moon can also operate as GPS like Starlink operates. 

The Starlink satellites can operate like GPS satellites. They can track the transmitter or modem from the ground just like GPS. And Starlink's ability to point modems from the ground is used in the Ukraine war. The Starlink system can make the world safer. It is a very multipurpose tool. If we want to make the moonbase or stable moon laboratories we must create the navigation system that can operate on the moon. 

On the moon, dayside. Or the side that is to Earth. It's quite easy to locate a person or vehicle. Those things can have lasers or radio transmitters that send location signals to telescopes on Earth. But communication on the Moon is much more difficult than on Earth. The lack of an ionosphere means that only a small hill can deny the radio communication between astronauts and their vehicles. The stone between astronauts can also deny communication. 

So there is the possibility of using a satellite swarm that orbits the moon. The system can use the same technology that Starlink uses when it tracks modems. The difference between laser and radio communication is that the lasers cannot penetrate the ground. But the real thing about radio transmissions is that they can cover large areas. 

Radio transmissions can transmit to a larger number of receivers. That makes mass-transmitting possible. Radio waves can travel through clouds and walls better than lasers. Lasers transmit more energy to layers than radio waves. And that can cause damage to structures. Otherwise, radio transmitters are easier to jam than lasers. 

Laser systems can also make large-area laser data transmissions. If those systems use lidar-based technology they can make large-area beams. The photocells or CCD systems can turn into electricity. The CCD cameras and computers can also read laser data transmissions. 

There are no clouds around the moon. And that makes laser transmissions suitable for data transmission on the moon. Those laser systems can operate as relay stations for the Moon data transmission and location systems. The Earth station sends signals to those satellites. In the form of radio waves.
