On December 27, the Global Network sent a message that the Chinese Permanent Mission to the United Nations submitted a note verbale information document to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, and the US Starlink satellite approached the Chinese Tiangong space station twice this year, resulting in the Chinese Tiangong space station taking "emergency avoidance" measures twice, which caused a serious threat to the life and health of China's astronauts.
This matter has been published on the official website of the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, according to which any state party to the Outer Space Treaty is required to bear corresponding international responsibility for its own outer space activities, whether official or unofficial, and to bear corresponding international responsibility for it. Therefore, at present, the United States must give China a reasonable explanation for this matter, why the Starlink satellite will approach China twice this year.
It should be noted that the two times the US Starlink satellites approached China's Tiangong space station, one was from May 16 to June 24, 2021, and the other was on October 21, 2021. June 17 and October 16 coincide with the docking time of Shenzhou XII, Shenzhou XIII and Tianhe core modules in China. At this time, the US Starlink satellites are continuously orbiting maneuvers, trying to get close to the Tianhe space station, what does this mean, it is difficult not to doubt.
Therefore, what is the united states' plan, this is not to prepare for international reservations, to ignore the "outer space treaty", and even after this incident, the United States will come to a so-called "withdrawal from the group" and engage in "space warfare" in outer space in the future?
As we all know, the United States began to prepare for space very early, but also last year the functions of the Space Force were more perfected, and there are departments that are full-time in charge of the United States in space satellites to search for intelligence, military operations and other issues, in a sense, although the Starlink satellite is an American civil society organization, but cooperation with the Pentagon or the White House is not uncommon, the U.S. Space Force to use the Starlink satellite is not impossible to complete.
It is worth mentioning that the Starlink satellite belongs to the "main satellite" of the famous SpaceX company in the United States, and has launched more than 1900 satellites, which is a concept, which has spread to almost every corner of the earth, that is, Musk, or the United States, if it wants, then it can grasp a considerable amount of information that can be collected by the Starlink satellite at any time.
And the Director of the European Space Agency, Joseph Aschbach, has said about this matter that Musk's "star chain" is too big, and if he wants to, then he will make his own space rules in the future. In other words, perhaps the United States is following the hegemony of the us dollar and military hegemony, a new hegemony model, that is, the "space hegemony" with the help of starlink satellites. Just like the StarLink on China's Tiangong space station and the US warship "Global Police", the space deployment that the United States is slowly rolling out may become another hegemonism of the United States that threatens the security of other countries in the future.
Finally, no matter what this US action represents, for the US action, our country has to guard against it, and we must be vigilant After all, according to the increasingly serious zero-sum thinking mode of the United States, the biggest possibility is actually the worst result! (Tu Su)
