There’s a sentence from the linked article that really summarizes the outrage:

“Why did the NRO have two unused space telescopes, when NASA is barely able to scrape two pennies together?”

I think it’s great that we have something that seems to work and hasn’t already been copied by every other advanced country in the world as they speed by us. Even if this is a fake or ruse just letting other countries THINK we have some serious and unknown capabilities is a great plus.

The US military has secret projects? No! Really?
Who’d a thunk it.
Stop yer whining people. Whats some of the last secret projects that are now used by everyday people?

How about GPS satellites just to start off with a big one. Something everyone uses or benefits from and was once a secret of the US military.

What the heck? Doesn’t he US already have enough drones to kill at will all over the world? And isn’t there a treaty or some such that bans space based weapons? So what the heck has the USAF lost in space?

Then the US government and military wonder why there is so much suspicion about them. I know they can’t divulge everything to the public, but sheesh. Let the public know there is this shuttle or plane or spacecraft don’t tell us what it’s for but don’t hide its existence either.

Conspiracy theorists are going to have a field day with this …
