Actually, I got to admit that probably the only I could ever get interested in playing golf is if I got to shoot a ball into space at thousands of miles an hour. quote: I'm hoping it will take out some multi-billion dollar satellite, myself. Preferably one that carries FOX News.
Now that would be fun. Sadly, though, Global CanWest's propaganda fluff most travels via cable ground link. quote: To answer your unasked question: Stupid PR stunt which makes NASA look foolish.
I wonder. With two fatal shuttle accidents in 20 years and an orbital telescope in act find the funds to fix, NASA doesn't seem to be looking much good at all. Guess that's what happens when Republican Reich government cut its funds and staff to throw more money at the Pentagon/military industrial complex.
