The United States Space Arsenal

ntmokey writes "When China tested a missile on its own satellite in January, the nation's aggressive statement immediately raised eyebrows among the world's other space-faring nations. Popular Mechanics looks at the implications of a conflict in space — including debris that could render space unusable for decades — and examines the United States' own space arsenal."

    That's no troll. That's a joke. A good one even. I like the moderation system for the most part but it does allow for a sort of cowardice that wavers between craven and pathetic. If someone says something you disagree with, say something back, don't just mod him down. That's no different from Bill O'Reilly cutting a guest's mike when he's at a loss for words. Weak.
