The United States shot down an intercontinental ballistic missile in space from a warship at sea for the first time ever in a successful demonstration early Tuesday morning, the Missile Defense Agency announced in a news release. What are the details? The ICBM was launched into space at approximately 12:50 a.m. EST from the Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site, located on the Marshall Islands. Shortly after, the missile was "intercepted and destroyed" as it traveled above the broad ocean area northeast of Hawaii. Story

Look! Up in the sky. It's a bird. It's a plane. No, it's an EMP!

About time the Navy caught up with the Air Force. LOL! Good adaptation of their anti-Satellite missile. Congrats Navy.
May you be treated the way you treat other people, today and everyday!
