andygatesSo, is anyone convinced that the Americans' reason to shoot down a lame spy satellite - to save us from its nasty toxic hydrazine fuel - is anything other than the skimpiest cover story ever? I mean, it's just a volatile. If it landed on a school the toxic effects would still be secondary to the impact damage, and that's trivial.
No, this shot is about protecting Secret Squirrel technology and equally about proving that they're just as badass in space as the satellite-killing Chinese. Nobody loves a good cold war like the military, eh? You get all the funding of a real war, and you don't have to get shot.
It'll be hilarious if they miss.
