| What has a shadowy US government spy agency just shot into space? Top-secret group that boasts 'nothing is beyond our reach' blasts classified rocket into orbitBy DAILY MAIL REPORTER and ASSOCIATED PRESSPUBLISHED: 21:57 EST, 6 December 2013 | UPDATED: 01:24 EST, 7 December 2013Despite ongoing anger about how the U.S. government is snooping on people around the world, one agency is still keen to boast about its spying - with a creepy cartoon octopus and an alarming logo.A top-secret rocket carrying spy satellites for the National Reconnaissance Office launched from the central California coast late on Thursday, and it had a large badge emblazoned on the sideThe new logo features a huge and sinister octopus, with just one angry eye visible, as it wraps its tentacles round the globe. Written underneath is: 'Nothing Is Beyond Our Reach.' Creepy? The spy rocket launched on Thursday featured a logo with an angry octopus encircling the globe and the phrase: 'Nothing Is Beyond Our Reach.' Destination unknown: Very few details were revealed about the top secret spy satellite launching on an Atlas 5 rocketThe Atlas V rocket lit up the night sky at about 11:15 p.m. Thursday, lifting off from Vandenberg Air Force Base toward low-Earth orbit.The 19-story-tall rocket carried items for the NRO, which operates the U.S. system of intelligence-gathering satellites.
The agency has not released any details about the payload but it did cover the launch of the rocket live on Twitter.Many people have expressed doubts over whether the logo is appropriate in the current atmosphere.Christopher Soghoian, senior policy analyst with the ACLU, tweeted: 'Advice to @ODNIgov: You may want to downplay the massive dragnet spying thing right now. This logo isn't helping.' Odd choice: Many people expressed doubts over whether the logo was appropriate in the current atmosphereYet Karen Furgerson, an NRO spokesperson, told Forbes that the image and phrase fitted the mission well.'NROL-39 is represented by the octopus, a versatile, adaptable, and highly intelligent creature. Emblematically, enemies of the United States can be reached no matter where they choose to hide,' she said.'Nothing is beyond our reach' defines this mission and the value it brings to our nation and the warfighters it supports, who serve valiantly all over the globe, protecting our nation,' Furgerson added.A California cold snap had threatened a possible delay of the lift-off, but the rocket took off within moments of the opening of its launch window.Thursday's launch was the second time an Atlas 5 rocket has lifted off from the West Coast this year. Overall, there have been 77 Atlas V launches from Vandenberg and Cape Canaveral, Florida. Up and away: Spectators watch the Atlas V rocket light up the night sky at about 11:15 p.m. Thursday, lifting off from Vandenberg Air Force Base toward low-Earth orbit

| lol Psalm 104:2 Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain. OUR God, wraps Himself with light, and stretches out the heavens as a curtain. I think we're in Good Hands. 
I believe the Bible as the literal and completed Word of God!

| 29 was 'cancelled', 33 is 'To be Determined', 35 is 'To be Determined', 37 is 'To be Determined', 41..49..65..& 66
have already launched. Anyone still think the the Lucy's that run the joint aren't into numerology.
THAT my friends is supposed to represent CTHULHU, CTHLH666 referred to by Crowley; the manifestation of chaos. nuts | |
