Boeing-made satellite explodes in space

[Zaphod58]

Well, there was that "precision" payload module jettison by the X-37B two weeks ago that Space Force was all smug about: https://spacenews.com/u-s-military-space...maneuvers/

So you're thinking tit-for-tat?

Oh and Starlink definitely can double as a kinetic disruptor, right? Does anyone doubt that? But perhaps not as high-energy yield as this event...

Tit-for-tat for what? The service module burned up in the atmosphere. There was no evidence that it hit anything, or did anything to any Chinese satellite. And hitting a geosynchronous communications satellite instead of a military satellite wouldn't send much of a message.
