Holding hands and singing ‘we shall overcome’ is not a viable counter solution btw… Since when is criticizing military R&D on weapons, that don’t even kill people, without defining a viable counter solution… centrist?

Apparently this is a direct response to China, which is believed to be developing exactly the types of "hostile satellites" that this one is designed to combat.

Consider how heavily we rely on GPS and satellite communications, and how our military could be crippled if these services were taken out by an enemy. No, there's no evidence others have this capability today, but I for one am glad we have some people in our military who are thinking ahead. “Hostile satellites” = satellites designed to destroy other satellites, namely those which are used for communications and location.
