I don't own a copy of Guinness World Records 2013, so I don't know whether the citation given for the claim that this is the "largest spy satellite ever launched" checks out or not, however even if the citation checks out I have severe reservations about reproducing that claim in the article.
So with that in mind I would suggest we remove, or at least de-emphasise the claim for the time being. -- W. D. Graham 12:18, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
