Satellites collide: accident or cold war?

Asked by steelmarket (3603points) February 16th, 2009

Last Tuesday, an American satellite and a Russian satellite collided in orbit and destroyed each other. Was this purely an accident, or is this one of those cold war “battles” that is never acknowledged by either side?
Space is a pretty big place!
