from what i have read, it was testing boring experiments and ion propulsion but mostly it was up there to remind china and russia that the US has the ability to do whatever the fuck it wants in space.

of course, i have posted things before going to bed only to wake up and look back at the posts and seen you posted the same thing 12 hours before... i blame this arbitrary sun of ours for complicating timing on earth unnecessarily. 28 hour days/6 day weeks ftw
