Trump monitors Iranian uranium under rubble with space satellites

Published on May 11, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

United States President Donald Trump assured that the Space Force is monitoring in real time the remains of 60% enriched uranium buried after the 2025 bombings against the nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. A total of 400 kilograms lie under tons of rubble, and any attempt at extraction will be met with new attacks.

Surveillance satellites and seismic sensors to detect excavations 🛰️

The Space Force deploys satellites with synthetic aperture radar and infrared sensors capable of detecting terrain alterations and heavy machinery movements. Additionally, seismic data is integrated to identify underground excavations. The system allows tracking any recovery operation of the radioactive material, which remains stable under the reinforced concrete and metallic remains of the destroyed buildings.

The buried uranium, a treasure no one can touch without permission ☢️

Iran has 400 kilograms of uranium under rubble, but removing it without the satellites noticing is like trying to steal a sofa from the White House living room: technically possible, but doomed to fail. Trump has already made it clear that if the Iranians pick up a shovel, he will launch the missiles. Meanwhile, the uranium rests under tons of concrete, waiting for someone to decide to play nuclear archaeologist.
