Hii...
As a defense analyst I focus primarily on offensive military systems, weapons and strategies. As a defense enthusiast, I also like to follow the big picture and get a better view of the forest (not just the trees.)
So when the US National Reconnaisance Office "gifted" two large surveillance telescopes to NASA to use in research, I was immediately intrigued. The news stories seem to focus on how fortunate NASA will be to get not one, but two of them. These space telescopes are touted at being better and more sophisticated than the Hubble telescope. The small print in the articles said something like: "since the NRO no longer needs them, they are presenting them to NASA."
Thanks..!
