<p>Last night, the United States Navy got to <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/space/02/21/satellite.shootdown/index.html#cnnSTCVideo">shoot a big missile at an even bigger, but not as cool, spy satellite</a>. It's amazing that we have the capability to shoot down fast moving targets a bazillion miles away from water-based platforms. You'd think waves would cause a problem, but I digress . . .</p>
