    They can come somewhat close to each other, foe example on Dec 31 at around 23:38 utc, they were predicted to pass within 100 km of each other.
    
    They could have an imaging system, in the payload pay, to take images of other sat's. 
    
    They say, it's being used to test out stuff, so why a imaging system.
