Satellite Captures Stunning Images of Another Satellite in Orbit.

TL;DR Summary
NASA's Landsat 8 satellite was pictured orbiting Earth by Maxar Technologies' commercial WorldView-3 observation satellite, providing a rare glimpse of a satellite in orbit taken by another satellite. The recent images of Landsat 8 taken by WorldView-3 point to the broader use of satellites to spy on enemy satellites. The ability to manipulate enemy satellites in orbit via other satellites is a quickly growing facet of what is an increasingly contested warfighting domain. Attacks on U.S. assets in space are now a daily occurrence, although the vectors of those attacks remain unclear.
