The Oracle Series Reconnaissance Satellites were a series of launches conducted by Sante Reze and Orun Redisus to place Oracle Spy Satellites in geocentric orbit above Ajax. The platforms were developed to replace the older Sentinel Series Satellites that were due to reach the end of their operational lives in 2007. The development of the Oracle series is believed to have been completed at the top secret Pyrkagies Black Site. There are seven such satellites in orbit, though known photos of them do not exist presently.
