>Something odd happened a few days ago, high above our heads. In an earlier blogpost, I discussed in detail how the odd spy satellite USA 276 (2017-022A) was set to make a peculiarly close approach to the International Space Station ISS on 3 June 2017. The spy satellite was recently launched for the NRO as NROL-76 by SpaceX, on 1 May 2017.

Maybe so they could spy on the Ruskies with it. That's why ISS has such a high inclination, because Baikonur. Or maybe China.

Bullshit. No way anything is flying that close to the ISS

+/- 2km
I'm more surprised that the accuracy of whatever tracking it is that shit.

no fucking way, it's legit. WHAT THE FUCK. Seriously how incompetent does NRO have to be to buzz the space station? That could totally compromise their secret satellite design.
Or could SpaceX have had a 'special payload' on CRS-11? Shit they even launched that spy satellite.
