A mysterious Russian spacecraft has maneuvered into a new orbit around Earth right behind a secret U.S. spy satellite.

The unusual move by Russian Cosmos 2542 on Jan. 20 allows it to closely watch the American KH-11, a $4 billion orbital telescope staring down at Earth. And there's not much that U.S. space operators can do about it.

The Russians have had the specs on the KH-11 since the late 70's. They knew of the existence of the KH-8 until a traitor sold them the specs on the KH-11! Up until then they didn't even know it existed.

Which KH-11 are they watching?

There are at least nine of them in polar orbit...

Just sayin'...

I have no idea. I had first hand knowledge of the first one that's all and how secret it was. But that was in the 70's.
