Twinkle twinkle US satellite
How your flight path causes fright
Spying in the sky so high
Like big brother swooping by
Twinkle twinkle US satellite
Please don't fall upon my car

| I am beginning to think that there should be international rules as to what can be put into space. Definitely no nuclear reactors .. |

I bet 2p that it's some bizarre sketch caused by a Moonraker type scenario in which the Chinese tried to hijack the satellite, but missed.
It's bound to be something simple like that.
nice ditty 6ul  |

Thanks Skylace. I note the treaty, but it isn't tight enough. It doesn't stop Nuclear powered satellites (like this one is believe to be).
That is what is really scary : Radioactive contamination. |

Twinkle twinkle little target
How our boffins won't forget you...
Up above the world so high
Like a bullseye in the sky
Twinkle twinkle little target
Thye hope their aim is sure or they'l regret you. |

My earlier comment about possible nuclear content might turn out to be true :
http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=43399§ionid=3510203
"A high-ranking Russian defense official says Moscow is concerned that the falling US spy satellite may have nuclear material onboard." |
