That debate is over the weaponization of space not the militarization.
The military has been operating equipment in space (i.e. GPS satellites) for decades.
In aviation, a service ceiling is typically defined by the altitude that the aircraft can no longer sustain a 100 fpm climb.
The only "aircraft" that don't have a service ceiling are those that go into orbit.
The Lebanese Army (Beirut), the Chinese Police (Bejing) , The Thailand Police (Bangkok) also acquired this equipment to detect all types of forbidden substances. This eas done to increase job results and to reach from now on a new level in terms of security and detection of threats.
I can't say I'm surprised, but I am DEEPLY disturbed.
Yeah, but your "ground launched model rockets" are just dumb rockets that go where ever they're pointed. It takes a hell of a lot more than just a rocket motor and some explosives to make a weapon that will kill effectively.
suggesting that it and earth share a common history.
Or just a coincidence, however unlikely that may be. With all of the asteroids wandering through space, it was bound to happen at some point.
Reminds me of the thought I have every now and then about a photons journey from the sun all the way to your retina, and how many refractions and reflections that one photon has been through to end up in your eye.
The same can be said of Bush. When the world economy collapses it's Bush's fault, but if Reagan did something right, he can't take credit for it?
That's something to laugh about.
Well at least back up your reasons for dismissing the Ares vehicle as "silly."
I'm an aerospace engineer too, but that doesn't necessarily qualify me to opine on the subject of solid rockets.

It seems your wish has been granted.

That's what the button should be shaped like.

Cave paintings or it didn't happen.
uhhh meant to write "word" not "would." Damn waking up so early.
So... Is "photon machine gun" another would for a light bulb?
Zombies have been doing this for centuries.
Completely Prevent? Your brain is either damaged or it isn't. There really isn't an inbetween there.
After reading the story, I scrolled down to see a picture of an old man face-palming.
Scientists are currently in the process of splicing algae DNA with shark DNA.

I completely agree bsharp8256. Today is not a good day for Towel Day.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Now THAT'S insightful.
No he means like that manned aircraft that was able to successfully land in the Hudson.

I didn't notice a difference in quality on the Notorious B.I.G. track.

"FF for Linux does suck quite a lot." "Will it run on Linux" is the question, not "how well does it run on Linux."
The irony here is laughable.
