It is like hitting a bullet with a bullet speeding at 22,000 mph, or 367 miles per minute or 6 miles per second. How could this possibly work!

a fraction of a degree off and you've missed completely!

What Is Your Thoughts on this?

Aegis is a beast. I'm betting for 1st time go.

They are using a SM-3 which is a kinetic warhead.

I just hope they don't mess up and cause an international incident, the Russians and Chinese would love an excuse to lay into the US

the US will screw up and shoot down the wrong satellite.
Probably a russian or Chinese one.
Then blame it on old maps or something equally as stupid.

We landed on the moon with less computing power than is in the PC you're using right now. I think the chances are pretty good we'll hit it. It's all mathematics.

one shot one kill. and who cares what anyone else thinks. let the china men eat another dog and the Russians can have another bowl of beets

It could be worse!!It could be that Old Buffer The Archbishop of Canterbury firing the missile and he would achieve what Guy Fawkes failed to achieve!!Or would that be a good thing with this bunch of loonies in power!!

I'm only sorry we can't watch it live on tv or the web. It's going to be spectacular! Go Navy!
