| #7 a space shuttle bay full of basketball sized steel balls covered in heat resistant ceramic. What the shit would a load like that weigh? And if we figure out a way to build something that will get it into space all at once. Go us. |

| #4 "A better scheme is to give the weapon to be launched from the satellite a small push, after which it will spiral in gradually." Remember all of those geosync sats from the 70s, 80s and 90s, Richard? Some have maneuvering fuel left. |

| #2 Much depends on the purpose of the kinetic energy weapon. Most of the study has assumed a deep penetration single weapon, like a bunker buster. But just as valuable, in a different way, would be a multitude of shallow penetration large area weapons. The difference is between the "rods from God", and a space shuttle bay full of basketball sized steel balls covered in heat resistant ceramic. |
