China's Spaceplane Haunted by Six Mysterious Objects in Orbit
China's experimental robotic spacecraft, Shenlong, has launched its third test mission and has been observed deploying six unidentified objects, referred to as "wingmen" by amateur skywatchers. These objects, designated OBJECT A to F, emit various signals, with some carrying small amounts of information. The emissions from OBJECT A resemble those of previous Chinese space plane "wingman" emissions, while OBJECT D and OBJECT E emit signals without any data. Amateur astronomers speculate on the purpose of these objects, while the US, with its own secretive X-37B space plane, is likely monitoring the situation closely.
