        Clearly we need to put cloaking devices on our satilites. Their is all that "space junk" out their that you could disquise the satilite as.

Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest. - Thus spoke Zarathustra, Fredrick Nietzsche

            Exciting stuff, now that's some technology right there!

            Or maybe they just built a BIG catapult, strapped a group of Chinese soldiers in it, with explosives strapped on to their bodies.. oh wait, but explosion in space, what ever, I'm not a space nerd, so screw you.

                The policy includes the right to "deny, if necessary, adversaries the use of space capabilities hostile to U.S. national interests."

                  i think the article's most important parts should be bolded if one excepts it to be read in it's entirety

                    I am protesting the nations that are protesting this test.

                      Meh.

                      Whining about it isn't going to change anything, so I'd rather we didn't whine.

                        This is actually pretty cool, but to China for creating tons of orbital debris. China needs to be good orbital neighbors and adhere to the obligations for which it has signed on.
                        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                          I wonder if they'd consider the european Galileo GPS system "hostile to national interests"? I mean, they can allways deny others from using their system, NAVSAT or what it was... But a competitive system, available for everyone, they might consider it a threat.

                          And "adversary" is a bit too generic. Europe is an adversary of US in many fields. Do they reserve the right to shoot down ESA's satellites?

                          "Yes, the new french communications satellite would have taken trafic from our satellites, and thus cost us dollars, even jobs. And no jobs means no bread in the tables of the good, god-fearin, law-abiding americans. We believe it was in the best national interest to take it down. I advice the frogs to not try it again, I hear them satellites are expensive."
                          I've allways wanted to play "Russ Meyer's Civilization"

                            Hey, everyone can reserve the right to do just about anything. And what they don't publicly reserve is something they still consider an option. Everything goes.

                            What matters is, is it reasonable, motivation etc. Since we aren't in bad relations, there's no need to shoot down any satellites outside their own.
