There is concern that half of the 5,000 lb satellite may remain intact and hit the earth in a yet unknown area. The plan is to shoot it down before it enters the earth's atmosphere with a missile fired from a US Navy ship. Details at 11. To what purpose? Unless they can blow it to pieces or change its trajectory to their liking what will it accomplish except perhaps test a "star wars" device. Should be interesting watching this develop. Ding, ding, ding! Give that man a prize. |
