And something smells fishy...

Hydrazine? Not why they are shooting this thing down. From what I've found out,

"(the USA, more specifically USAF) shot a satellite out of orbit back in 1985. It was called ASAT and launched from an F-15.

I call bullshit on this whole operation. We have directed energy weapons that should deal with this without all the fallout in terms of space debris. Something is up and we are never going to know what it is.

PS - Every single F-16 out there has hydrazine in it."

Good practice for shooting down enemy satellites and missiles if nothing else...
