oy! i have a BA an im not a retard :p |

IMO the US is just using this as an excuse to test/show off thier ability to shoot down enemy satellites.
Didn't China test an anti-satellite missle system last year? Seems pretty reasonable that the Americans would want to put on thier own show of force...reasonable in that it's reasonable to assume they would want to, not that the weaponization of space is reasonable. |

No I didn't read the whole thread...I'm just expressing my opinion.
In my opinion, this was part of a pissing contest by the US.
Also in my opinion, you're an ass. |

i don't know about the china-part, but of course this is a display of their new weapons. if the satellite posed a threat big enough to be at all considered a threat, the pentagon wouldnt have had a press conference about it. it wouldve been classified. |

back once again OT: Such a waste of good ammo, they could have let it burn in the athmosphere. Or they could have use the remaining fuel to raise the speed of the satellite, so it would have bounced off the earth's orbit and go into space, and be lost forever. |
Being as the root cause of the satellite falling out of orbit, in the first place, was that it was non-responsive to control commands sent from earth; chances are your plan of speeding it up to bounce of the earth's orbit (my guess is you mean atmosphere as orbit is a path of motion, which is not matterial therefore impossible to bounce something off off) wouldn't have worked out too well. |

Now I've read the whole thread...my opinion is the same. The US were just showing off.
As far as the motive for this intercept, being the toxic hydrazine, I'm curious - if this is a highly flammable fuel, wouldn't it burn up in the atmosphere? Did you see what happened to the Shuttle columbia? It was reduced to bits and that mofo was designed to brave the atmosphere.
Nothing you say will convince me that this was all for our best interest.
All that was missing from this test was a ruler to measure penis-size. |

it never ceases to amaze me what a complete gathering of cretins we get in here, professing to know the first thing about the US' agenda.
some of you s needs to grow the up and stop watching so much tv. yeah, the US needed to have a pissing contest with the chinese :rolleyes:
clueless s the lot you. |

Hydrazine is not highly flammable..
Some info on the toxicity of Hydrazine for you lazy CORers..
"Symptoms of acute (short-term) exposure to high levels of hydrazine may include irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, dizziness, headache, nausea, pulmonary edema, seizures, coma in humans. Acute exposure can also damage the liver, kidneys, and central nervous system. The liquid is corrosive and may produce dermatitis from skin contact in humans and animals. Effects to the lungs, liver, spleen, and thyroid have been reported in animals chronically exposed to hydrazine via inhalation. Increased incidences of lung, nasal cavity, and liver tumors have been observed in rodents exposed to hydrazine."
Oh and yeah, "Only one human is known to have died from exposure to hydrazine hydrate" |

Considering that China has the world's largest military, yeah they do.
You need to grow up a little and accept that not everything the government (especially THIS govenment) tells you is accurate.
What education do you have relating to aerospace? Chemical engineering? political science?
Maybe then you could argue that you know anything about space vehicles, the fuels that power them and the politics of firing a weapon into space.
I'll ask again, why would hydrazine not burn up in our atmosphere? Why would the satllite not break up on re-entry? How much hydrazine was on board the doomed vehicle? What concentration of hydrazine is required to produce what toxic effects?
Are you really dismissing out-of-hand the idea that the US has a hidden agenda? Really?
Now who's the idiot? |
