Amasosha ase-US amemezela ukuhlolwa kweRussia komcibisholo we-anti-satellite

I-Russia yenze olunye uvivinyo lwesistimu yayo yemicibisholo eklanyelwe ukucekela phansi isathelayithi emzileni woMhlaba - okungenani lokho mayelana nakho. I-US Space Command ibikiwe. Kukholakala ukuthi lokhu kuwukuhlolwa kweshumi kobuchwepheshe be-anti-satellite (ASAT), kodwa akucaci noma lo mcibisholo ukwazile ukucekela phansi noma yini emkhathini.

Vele, i-US Space Command yawulahla ngokushesha lo mbukiso. "Ukuhlolwa kwe-Russian anti-satellite ngesinye isibonelo sokuthi izinsongo ze-United States nezinhlelo zasemkhathini ezihlangene zingokoqobo, zibucayi futhi ziyakhula," kusho umkhuzi we-USSPACECOM kanye nenhloko yemisebenzi yasemkhathini ye-US Space Force, uGeneral John Raymond. "Izwe laseMelika selikulungele futhi lizibophezele ekunqandeni udlame nokuvikela isizwe, ababambisene nathi, kanye nezintshisakalo zase-US ezenzweni ezinobutha emkhathini."

I-Russia kubikwa ukuthi ibilokhu ihlola i-A-2014 Nudol anti-satellite system kusukela ngo-235 - ukuhlolwa kwakamuva. ngokokuhlaziya inhlangano engenzi nzuzo i-Secure World, okusolwa ukuthi yabanjwa ngomhla ka-15 Novemba 2019. Uhlelo luqukethe imoto yaphansi ehambayo enomcibisholo we-ballistic okwazi ukuhamba futhi uqalise ezindaweni ezihlukahlukene eMhlabeni. Kusolakala ukuthi yadalelwa ukuthi inqande izinto ezindaweni eziphakeme ukusuka kumakhilomitha angama-50 kuye ku-1000.

Akukacaci ukuthi ngabe iRussia ibihlose ukushaya igoli ngokwethulwa kwakamuva. Uma kwakunjalo, khona-ke umkhumbi-mkhathi omdala i-Cosmos 356 ungase ube umgomo ongase ube khona, ngokusho komhlaziyi uMichael Thompson wasePurdue University. Kodwa isathelayithi isendaweni futhi imfucumfucu ayitholakali.

Kulokhu, kukhona eyodwa ebukeka ithembisa njengokuphokophelwe UCABANGA UKUTHI BABEHLOSE OKUTHILE. Nalapha, asinasizathu sokukukholelwa lokho okwamanje. Kodwa uma bekunjalo, i-Cosmos 1356, isathelayithi endala ye-ELINT, ingaba sendaweni efanele ngesikhathi esifanele. pic.twitter.com/tzOFEYidLe

Kusolwa ukuthi iRussia ayikashayi ilitshe ezungeza uMhlaba isebenzisa iNudol. “Ngokubona kwethu, lokhu kuwukuhlola kweshumi kwalolu hlelo, kodwa kuze kube manje akukho neyodwa imizamo ebonakala ihloselwe ukucekela phansi inhloso yangempela emzileni,” kusho uBrian Weeden, umqondisi wokuhlelwa kwezinhlelo ze-Secure World. Isisekelo. UBrian Weeden). Imvamisa izivivinyo ezinjalo azibikwa esidlangalaleni, kepha kulokhu amasosha aseMelika amemezele lesi sivivinyo ngokushesha ngosuku lokuziphatha kwalo ngo-Ephreli 10.

Ukwenza izivivinyo ezinjalo kungabonakala njengokubonisa amandla: izwe libonisa abanye ukuthi liyakwazi ukucekela phansi amasathelayithi abantu abangaba izitha. Ngenxa yalokho, izenzo ezinjalo zivame ukulahlwa abanye ohulumeni. UGeneral Raymond, ngokwesibonelo, akazange akhulume amazwi esitatimendeni sakhe futhi akazange aphuthelwe ngisho nesihloko se-coronavirus: "Lokhu kwethulwa kuwubufakazi obengeziwe bokuzenzisa kweRussia ekusekeleni iziphakamiso zokulawulwa kwezikhali zasemkhathini - kuhloswe ngazo kuphela ukukhawulela amandla e-United. Amazwe, ngesikhathi esifanayo iRussia ngokucacile ayihlosile ukumisa izinhlelo zayo zokuthuthukisa izikhali ezilwa nesathelayithi. Indawo ibalulekile kuzo zonke izizwe kanye nendlela yethu yokuphila. Isidingo sezinhlelo zasemkhathini siyaqhubeka ngesikhathi sobunzima lapho izinto zomhlaba wonke, ezokuthutha kanye nokuxhumana kubalulekile ekunqobeni ubhubhane lwe-COVID-19. "

Ukuhlolwa kwe-ASAT kulahlwa abaningi emphakathini wasemkhathini ngoba ukucekela phansi isathelayithi kudala amakhulu noma izinkulungwane zezingcezu ezincane ezihamba ngokushesha ezingahlala ku-orbit izinyanga noma iminyaka. Khona-ke imfucumfucu iba usongo emikhumbi-mkhathini esebenzayo. Ngonyaka odlule, i-India yadonsa ukucasuka komphakathi wasemkhathini lapho yenza uhlolo oluyimpumelelo lwe-ASAT, yacekela phansi enye yamasathelayithi ayo ku-orbit, yakha izingcezu ezingaphezu kuka-400 zemfucumfucu yasemkhathini. Nakuba isiphuphutheki sasisendaweni ephansi kakhulu, ngisho nangaphezu kwezinyanga ezine kamuva, inqwaba yezingcezu zemfucumfucu yayisasele emkhathini.

I-China kanye ne-US nabo babonise ngempumelelo ubuchwepheshe babo be-ASAT. Ngo-2007, iChina yacekela phansi esinye seziphuphutheki zayo zesimo sezulu ngomcibisholo osuka phansi, yadala izingcezu ezingaphezu kuka-3000 zemfucumfucu, ezinye zazo ezahlala emkhathini iminyaka. Ngo-2008, amasosha aseMelika adubula umcibisholo esathelayithi ebhidlikayo ye-US National Space Administration.
