China’s satellite network monitors aircraft carriers at 36,000 kilometers altitude

According to Chinese media Daguo Jiangling, during the absence of “Skynet” satellite surveillance network in China, China was constantly monitored by the United States and thus suffered leakage of a lot of information.

In order to get rid of the restrictions of the United States on China in this field, China is determined to develop a “Skynet” satellite surveillance network system.

Under the leadership of Professor Ye Peijian and the strong support of the country, China finally developed such a device and successfully established its own “Skynet” surveillance system in space.

It is reported that the current “Skynet” system of China has very high accuracy and a resolution of 2 meters, which allows it to know every move of global aircraft carriers even at an altitude of 36,000 kilometers. As the network can work 24 hours a day, China will be immediately aware of any actions of aircraft carriers in other countries, including the United States, and prevents other countries from using the “blind zone” against China.

It’s reported that China’s deployment of this “Skynet” satellite surveillance system is not for the purpose of stealing intelligence from other countries, but for self-protection, because the United States has established its own intelligence network long before many countries around the world, so that it holds many secrets of other countries in hand, which has greatly helped its development.

Pakistan could certainly benefit from any intel on Indian naval movement. No more hidden Indian carriers if a war breaks out.

With 36,000 km altitude, that's mean in GEO orbit.
Until this day, no ASAT can reach that. So that's China skynet satellites cannot be shot down

The word skynet makes it sound like the evil AI from Terminator movie.
