Pah! They're hitting the satellite at 150 miles altitude. Nothing orbits that low. The Chinese destroyed a satellite at 537 miles altitude.

I don't like the idea of a spy satellite in our air space but equally concerned about shooting down a satellite with a full tank of fuel that could "disperse potentially deadly fumes over an area the size of two football fields", as the article indicates. Pretty scary stuff.

Blessings,
Out of the materialism of the 1950s, the narcissism of the 1960s, and the hedonism of the 1970s has risen a society that aborts its unborn, commercializes the care of its children and warehouses its elderly. Blinded by such confused priorities, we are dehumanizing our country and destroying our family relationships.
