#5  a vanilla Minuteman test firing

Salacious details extracted from:

LGM-35A Sentinel Intercontinental Ballistic Missile, USA

"The new ICBM will replace the 400 five-decade-old LGM-30 Minuteman III ICBMs, which have been in service with the USAF since the 1970s."

The launch may have been to 'warm-up' the test range for a new class of digital clients.

Just another quicker way to end the world.

Wait until a Transporter is fully perfected.... Then we can wipe out the earth in 10 seconds.
