The Dems want to borrow it to use on John Kerry's ego.

Here it is. Looks promising, if they can figure out a way to avoid the flying saucer.

I believe if you rotate the ship quickly while firing it will create a death spiral destroying asteroids and the alien ship.

So those missiles in space in the movie Armageddon is not to far fetched... or was it the movie Deep Impact ?

I am not sure,, there were a lot of cheesy space movies back in the 70s and 80s...
I always say to put Godzilla on a spring board and launch him into space and he will take care of it.
To: Prophet in the wilderness
This one wasn't as "cheesey" as some others, but it never was a Blockbuster for some reason. At the end, all nations that had nuclear tipped missiles launched one on a tightly controlled sequence to head for the incoming asteroid and explode simultaneously in a great big "we are humanity, hugs all around, feel good" explosion........Never mind the fact that ICBMs aren't made to leave earth orbit.........

Wouldn't missiles that don't need Oxygen to breath work in space ?
To: Red Badger
If I remember correctly, the U.S. and U.S.S.R. saved the world by launching their missiles from super-secret orbiting space weapons platforms. I forgot the name of the U.S. system, but the Soviets called theirs "Peter the Great," which I thought was uber cool at the time (when I was a 10-year-old kid).

Further proof that the Russian space tourism program is beginning to pay dividends?

Great. Now, if they could only make a decent appliance and automobile, they may raise their standard of living to what it was for the U.S. in the 1950s.
