| Abstract: | Small military satellites could survey troop movement and terror training bases, says NIAS Tracking troop movements across international borders, or monitoring new or existing terror training camps is not easy. Satellites passing over target areas for only a few hours can relay time-limited intelligence, while ground-based intelligence gathering cannot always be reliable. But consider this: A series of eyes in the sky to snoop on unfriendly neighbours or hostile groups 24/7, using space-based electronic equipment on board military satellites to relay intelligence. This is a suggestion through a study by a Bengaluru-based scientific think-tank to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). And sources in the space agency say they are giving serious thought to the plan. |
