WASHINGTON - The Pentagon is planning to shoot down a broken spy satellite expected to hit the Earth in early March, The Associated Press has learned.
U.S. officials said Thursday that the option preferred by the Bush administration will be to fire missiles from a U.S. Navy cruiser, and shoot down the satellite before it enters Earth's atmosphere. I love you.
This was done before. It wasn't that cool.

the good call with "exploding" satellites is that it's going to disperse a shitload of "small" debris who are going to do a shit load of arm to other satellites (I won't enter into details but a screw launched at 48'000 km/h does a shitload of arm when it goes through a solar panel).
morons all that because they couldn't control the fall of that shit and fear that some evil badies are going to get their dirty secrets....
(said satellite is the size of a minivan)
