ALIEN GNOMES: Over a Decade Later, NASA’s Long-Dead IMAGE Satellite May Have Come Back to Life. “A $150 million NASA satellite which died from systems failure just five years after its launch has somehow reactivated and is still broadcasting, Science reported Friday. Astronomer Scott Tilley was searching for signs of Zuma, a classified U.S. government satellite of unknown purpose that officials declared a ‘total loss’ shortly after its launch, when he was surprised to discover a signal from a satellite labeled ‘2000-017A.’ In a blog post earlier this month, Tilley wrote that he was able to confirm that the object was indeed NASA’s long-lost Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration satellite by matching it to its orbit.”
