Concerns are growing among skywatchers about Russia's satellite activities in orbit, specifically regarding satellites exhibiting 'killer' behavior. These satellites are capable of maneuvering close to other nations' satellites, raising fears of potential interference or even hostile actions. The situation is described as a 'dangerous game of chess' reflecting a renewed sense of Cold War-era tension in space. The purpose and capabilities of these satellites remain a subject of intense scrutiny.
