GPS Interference Detected Across Europe Traced to Space

A new study by researchers from the University of Texas and Stanford University has raised concerns that a constellation of Russian satellites may be capable of disrupting GPS signals across vast geographic regions. Scientists say repeated signal drops recorded across Europe, Greenland, and Canada point to the possibility of a space-based jamming system operating from Russia's Molniya orbit satellites. If confirmed, the capability could represent a major escalation in electronic warfare and pose challenges for aviation, navigation, communications, and military operations.
