The Army/Navy/Air Force Satellite Information System (ANASIS)-II satellite was developed according to specifications laid down by the South Korean Agency for Defense Development (ADD) and built by Airbus. It was transported to the Kennedy Space Center on 8 June aboard an Antonov An-124 and will spend the following weeks at the SpaceX processing facility at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station for testing and fuelling before its planned launch from Launch Complex 39 at the Kennedy Space Center.

South Korea acquired the satellite, which was formerly identified as KMilSatCom 1, as part of an offset agreement with Lockheed Martin in 2014 for acquiring its F-35A Joint Strike Fighter. The company eventually subcontracted the satellite production work to Airbus around 2016.

ANASIS-II is understood to be based on Airbus’ modular Eurostar E3000 satellite bus that can weigh between 3,500 to 6,000kg depending on the hosted payloads and can reportedly cover a 6,000km radius over the Korean Peninsula.

The South Korean armed forces is currently relying on satellite communications bandwidth provided by the commercial Mugunghwa-5 satellite launched in 2006.

With the introduction of a military-only communication satellite, the military is able to maintain a command and communication system from interference with radio waves through EMP (electromagnetic pulse) bullets. In addition, the military expects to expand the scope of the ROK Military's own operations, unlike the previous time when the US military had to be assigned a frequency of US military satellites to carry out operations in north Korea in case of an emergency.

A Black Lives Matter mural painted on a street in a village outside of Chicago has been altered to say “All Lives Matter.”

The incident in Oak Park is now being investigated by police as an act of vandalism, officials say.

“The movement lives within us,” Kasani Cannon, one of the artists who painted the mural, told Fox32 Chicago. “You can paint over it, you can drive over it, but once this mural dries, our movement still goes on.”

Zaria Gilmore, another one of the artists, added that it was “not shocking at all to see there are people who thought they were entitled enough to paint over what we've done here.”

An image the station obtained of the vandalism shows parts of the letters in the “Black” portion of the mural erased and altered to say: “All.”
