Mission Accomplished!

They did it! The US Navy hit a slow-moving satellite with a consistent trajectory after initially calling the whole mission off because of weather! This just goes to show you, missile defense can save all of our lives - as long as it doesn't rain, and the weapons it's trying to hit go very very slowly, and in a deliberate manner. And we have about a week's notice.

Exciting!

...by the way, this development means we obviously need to give the Air Force billions more dollars so they have the tools they need to help us go house-to-house in Iraq and blow missiles out of their orbit.
