You sound like one of those downers who scoffed at President Regan’s Star Wars missile defense plans - plans BTW that have developed ABM missile systems that are in use today. The test indicates that hypersonic intercept and destruction ARE possible. Technology advances - individual bias not so.
Gee whiz Gozilla what steps do you take to cultivate your naivete?
By the way, before I tansferred to MDAC-KSC in ‘84 I worked at the “missle plant” in Titusville. Star Wars? Don’t know what your talking about. It sure as hell wasn’t called Star Wars.
