The strikes on observation, communications and positioning satellites in the next war won’t be “random” events.

Hoovering up space debris might be a good mission at some point.

Orbiting crews have seen holes in space station solar arrays before, such as a "bullet hole" that Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield tweeted about during his last mission in 2012-13. "Bullet hole — a small stone from the universe went through our solar array," Hadfield wrote in April 2013, suspecting the hole was caused by a tiny space rock called a micrometeoroid.

The horrible bias by this author is badly tempered by the single citation of a prior event above with an ironic quotation which followed:

"Glad it missed the hull."

They announce no serious damage to the arm without pulling back the insulation to take a look. That thing looks like it was drilled with a 50 cal. Bet that arm is shattered.

OK I just invented class IV+ bulletproof soft boom/armor insulation. How much you need NASA?

That strike would have killed an astronaut.
