Thinking the exact same thing.... What a strange thing to do.... Unless it was pointed a alien lifeforms house and they got upset about it....

The aliens hacked the telescopes to hide their invasion.

...... It is another russia.... Do you think there is like another alien race that thinks hell no we have to help them and they give us some kick ass technology? One can dream.

Dear Haxxors, please do not screw up scientific observations. Thats not very L33T of you.

It was probably a typical someone-opened-the-wrong-email ransomware attack rather than something targetted.

What was the actual attack? Assuming it stole data rather than denial of service.

Ok but... WHY?
Of all the deserving targets, why a telescope?
That's messed up and so useless...

I’m thinking it’s ALIENS.

could be Russia flexing and showing the west what it can do to them if it chooses to. They’ve recently been warning that they can attack our space infrastructure

I saw that.... But I thought they would attack them with missiles or something in space our giant space stuff, not this... That's just weak. I mean it's not like these can spy on russian positions on the battlefield, and am pretty sure we have tech up there that can spy on their tech up there.

cyberattacks are very powerful and this could just be a warmup

Yea I get that I know a few people who work at our critical infrastructures, they were prepared in December of last year for increased cyberattacks. To be honest if this does lead to a war I think nations are prepared. I understand from news here that some massive attacks have already been attempted. I don't see it escalating to a point of physical war. It is something even with China, North Korea etc on russias side they could win. Because no one really wins but that's nuclear war. A normal war still devastating to all parties but not something they could win and russia have even pointed that out. But then again norad was blown up was it the west or russia? No idea was it a dam crazy move? Hell yea. But bright side renewable energy should make leaps and bounds now. Just gonna miss Internet when and if it goes sigh new to reddit and will miss it terribly. It has grown on me.
