>How do you put a satellite in orbit without anyone knowing about it? You hide it with another satellite!

Heh. There was a Russian launch recently where a piece of "debris" started moving under its own power after stage separation.

That article has no date attached. I find that infuriating.

Not unusual for aggregation sites like that, unfortunately. The FT article it in turn does cite has a dateline of November 17, 2014.

The year is also reflected in the naming of the object, by the way: Object 2014-28E.
