The AFSCN does a lot of that. Remote stations around the world check the health and whatnot of satellites. They also process whatever information satellites have to divulge, such as weather, pictures, etc.

Dude I doubt that it would happen. But since you asked, the NSA, and the military both watch for any missile launches that would breach the earths atmosphere.
The tech to shoot down Sat's has been around for a long time, the US had a system that launched off a high flying jet 20 years ago. But don't worry about China, they are too economically tied to the US to do anything to us, there economy would collapse, but on the flip side, if they did, or economy would collapse also.

the military&air forces are watching out the satellites. 24/7 you got nothing to worry about.. Destroying a satellite of the US is sth. that China would never even consider doing...

the government is always using and watching through those satellites so I'm sure they are. and if you think that we don't have the capability to knock out every satellite in the sky then your delusional. if they start shooting down our satellites then we will repay the favor and no one can afford all that so they won't and we won't. but don't be surprised if one or two mysteriously fall and everyone is claiming that it wasn't them.

the companies that make satellites will sell the secrets of how to destroy them for a few bucks. after all ITT sold china the secrets of our night vision a few days ago. they were fined ....so what, they should be in jail for treason.
