Zone1 Is This A Good Idea For The Military?

[Road Runner]

shoshi asked me to post a thread about this so I'm doing it for her and I also think that it makes for a rather interesting discussion. I think that it's a good idea but I'm not sure how well that it would be able to be carried out.

We had always made a choice not to militarize space

It is something that is bound to happen

We made a conscious decision not to put munitions in space. But we have put spy satellites in space. We can look at things on the ground, follow them and even listen in on things said over radios and landlines. That actually is done by the military

Someone is going to militarize space and fill it with weapons that can hit anywhere on the planet.

I would much rather is not be communist democrats.

Rocket cargo delivery to other spots on earth?

As far as dumb ideas go, that's one of the dumbest.

Assuming it works ... a big if, given how often the Starship rockets explode ... in the time it takes to prep and load a rocket, you could have had a fleet of C-17s making drops.

Good point as it might possibly backfire.
