What if you used the shuttle to steal a military camera satellite and use that for your own?

0:08.7

That you can't, okay, so-

0:10.7

Haven't you just given us the plot of Moonraker?

0:13.0

It's the part of Moonraker.

0:15.0

It's also a real thing, like, um, I venture to suggest this is an area that, like, is not widely spoken about, for good reason, but like I would be amazed if no one had come up with the idea of like kidnapping a satellite or indeed if it hadn't been done.

0:31.0

That was part of the mission perimeter for the design of the

0:33.2

space shuttle was that it had to be able to rendezvous with a satellite in an

0:37.4

orbit that could only have launched from the cosmodrome and return to the US.

0:41.9

1:20.0

Right, actually it had left Earth that had come back to Earth and the Soviets just like put it on on like display and the CIA kind of kidnapped it was a interesting story to my knowledge is still in that like rotting away in a in a hangar we could you know

1:38.4

yeah I thought they just moved I'm pretty sure it's going to a museum. I'm not sure. Well museum is actually easier to get to rather than a locked hangar.

1:46.8

Honestly, it's on display you can just walk up and scope the place easily. We'll wrap, we use Mia for local intelligence. We use Victoria for a getaway driver.
