The video linked at the bottom of the page purports to show the US Navy blowing up a satellite. The explosion looks like conventional explosions on Earth, rather than the extremely fast, bright, sphere-shaped explosions that this page suggests that it should have produced. The actual explosion in the video reminded me very much of the Challenger explosion, which I believe was within the Earth\'s atmosphere. This satellite would have been above the atmosphere, in space, yet explodes in the same manner. ~~~~

If nothing less, that video being linked at the end of the page renders everything said on the page above it enormously confusing.
