The story behind National Reconnaissance Office's octopus logo

https://www.muckrock.com/news/archives/2016/jan/19/octopus-NRO/

        When the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) announced the
        upcoming launch of their NROL-39 mission back in December 2013,
        they didn't get quite the response they had hoped for ...  That
        might have had something to do with the mission logo being a
        gigantic octopus devouring the Earth ... Privacy and security
        researcher Runa Sandvik wanted to know who approved this and
        why, so she filed a FOIA with the NRO for the development
        materials that went into the logo. A few months later, the NRO
        delivered.
