Yesterday, from Cape Canaveral, a new satellite was launched into orbit for the National Reconnaissance Office. In a speech a few weeks earlier, the NRO Director said the satellite would be the world's biggest.
Of course, the NRO being the NRO, he didn't say what exactly the satellite would do. That can possibly be inferred by noting the NRO is among the more secret of the various agencies in America's intelligence community. Noting the largest commercial satellite weighs something over three tons, the NRO satellite would be even more massive than that.
