It's not like it is the first time a Northrop Grumman satellite has not functioned after reaching orbit. Kind of telling when another satellite company, Iridium, says they are not concerned with Space-X ability to deliver. It does seem as if the report and everything that can be said is that Space-X did their job, no one said the same thing about Northrop Grumman.
the point I find interesting is that the sattelite is CLASSIFIED.
What part of SECRET does the news media not understand.
SpaceX...the military...can NOT comment.
Any day now I expect the news media to say something like
"The air force refused to deny that Zuma is intended to emit radiation that will sterilize Muslim Females".
what COULD the air force say other than 'no comment'?
