ASAT missiles are only suitable for low earth orbit, you’d need a rocket about the size of a falcon 9 to reach GEO where Intelsat was sitting. Think people might notice that. Wouldn’t need the satellite to be on a suicide mission, could just slap a gun on it like the good old days.

They have one sigint satellite Olymp-K creeping around up there, why not a second that doesn’t have a Wikipedia article

You don’t need to put it in the gear opposite to the direction it’ll roll. Generally you want to put it in the gear with the lowest ratio (which in my car I think is first), as that will require the most amount of force to turn the engine. But also some engines shouldn’t be rotated backwards because that might damage them. So that would mean put it in first facing downhill or reverse facing uphill.

They mean outrun in terms of acceleration/speed in a straight line, not outlast

That is well cool

The radioactive source isn’t used for power in smoke detectors, it’s used to detect smoke. What small scale devices use radioactivity actually for power?

There’s really not much in it, I can kinda see it’s slightly less green as well as brighter like you say.

They’ll test it on the ground and flying slowly first before going fast to make sure it’s safe enough.

Some phones can already do that, like wireless powershare (Samsung)

Not in elementary school

Well, that sucks, did you raise it with your manager or is there no point

We have performance appraisals, never heard them referred to as “top marks in a group” like we’re still in school doing a group project, to me the original post reads like a story made up by a student.

Where do you work where you get “top marks”?
