so why exactly is my post moderated down? because my email address says 'i.am.troll.hear.me.roar'? what bullshit. so much for moderation based on the content of posts. my theory that the satellite was shot down is perfectly valid, just as valid as any other theory. i even point out some evidence for my theory. i'll bet someone who had a subscription to the magazine in 1994-95 could confirm this. the moderation system is truly pathetic.
seems like the most plausible theory, what with such an experienced delivery mechanism. i would guess that a laser weapon would be most well suited to destroying a satellite in orbit. i recall that there was such a weapon in development my the US army. there was even an issue of popular science devoted to the concept of a such a laser weapon, and in it they stated that it could have anti-satellite uses; moreover, they said that there were tests currently under way, and this was in '95 or '96.... hey i just checked out the popular science website and lo and behold if you go to there, and search through their article resource finder with the term 'laser weapon' you will get some results with said laser weapon. i honestly believe that it is a real possibility that the US military has shot down both of those satellites. after all, let's say that you were the commander able to make such a decision, wouldn't you shoot it down if it were a real threat to national security?
