One of NASA's Earth observation satellites was hacked twice back in 2008, the TPM news website reports.
In an e-mail to TPM, NASA public affairs officer Trent Perrotto confirmed two incidents had affected the Terra AM-1 satellite.
"NASA experienced two suspicious events with the Terra spacecraft in the summer and fall of 2008," Perrotto wrote. "We can confirm that there was no manipulation of data, no commands were successfully sent to the satellite, and no data was captured. NASA notified the Department of Defense, which is responsible for investigating any attempted interference with satellite operations."
He further wrote that NASA has "created a working group to establish and implement an agency-wide space protection program."
A report on the Bloomberg website indicates that computer hackers, possibly from the Chinese military, infiltrated two U.S. government satellites four times in 2007 and 2008.
Bloomberg bases its piece on a draft of the annual report of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission and reports that the hacking took place through a ground station in Norway.
