China dismisses reports about anti-satellite missile test


BEIJING, Oct. 25 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Yang Yujun has dismissed media reports about a planned test launch of an anti-satellite missile in November.

"Such reports did not conform to the fact," Yang said at a regular news briefing on Thursday.

Reports said that China will conduct the test targeting satellites with a high orbit altitude, such as reconnaissance satellites and navigation satellites. Reports said the test would be conducted after the U.S. presidential election next month.

China is slowly emerging as a definite threat to mankind.. they won't stop at anywhere :|
 
As long as they don't cause a mess like the last one did, jesus that was a real f up China. Make it clean this time.
 
Good news but it should be directed at Japanese JAXA TeleCom Stats and JMSDF assets in space, should Japs gets to lippy!

After india is split into many pieces and South Asia is at peace then we stop :)

No, Nippon is a greater threat! India can be dealt with later!

Yes , US is a saint , right ? :azn: ... The history of the Americans can put even Hitler to shame !

Note that the word "innovative" is used to describe the missile in the headline.

It is also reported in the same article that designs for quite a number of new type missiles have been finalized and the resulting systems fielded

China unveils large radio telescope in Shanghai

Updated: 2012-10-28 18:20(Xinhua)

SHANGHAI - A massive radio telescope for use in space observation was unveiled Sunday at the foot of Sheshan Mountain in Shanghai.

The telescope will be used to track and collect data from satellites and space probes.

The newly-built radio telescope can pick up eight different frequency bands and also track Earth satellites, lunar exploration satellites and deep space probes, said Hong Xiaoyu, head of the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory.

"We hope that the new radio telescope will go into operation earlier so that we can use it to observe the unmanned lunar probe Chang'e-2," said Wu Weiren, chief designer of the lunar orbiter project.

The telescope will be used for Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), a type of astronomical interferometry used in radio astronomy, as it can collect accurate data and increase its angular resolution during astronomical observation.

China's VLBI system is made up of four telescopes in the cities of Shanghai, Beijing, Kunming, Urumqi, respectively, as well as a data center in Shanghai.

Radio telescopes differ from optical ones in that they use radio antennae to track and collect data from satellites and space probes. The first radio antenna used to identify astronomical radio sources was built by Karl Guthe Jansky, an engineer with Bell Telephone Laboratories, in the early 1930s.

Would you mind to tell me from which TV report you got this image?

Thx,
