Space Threats from Russia

Russian satellites Luch-1 and Luch-2 may intercept European geostationary satellites.
Older satellites lack modern encryption, making them vulnerable.
Luch-2 approached 17 satellites since 2023.
Satellites position in uplink/downlink beams to capture control data.
False commands could manipulate satellite orbits or cause collisions.
Luch-1 fragmented, linked to Russian space reconnaissance tactics.
