The military will try to shoot down a crippled spy satellite...

...The effort will be a real-world test of the nation’s antiballistic missile systems..

...the target is a doomed experimental satellite the size of a school bus and weighing 5,000 pounds...
Now that's an experiment. If the thing didn't contain a hazardous substance, it would have been cool to let it hit land.

They're supposed to be shooting this thing out of the sky today. I heard it'll be demolished over the Pacific Ocean, west of Hawaii. I hope they get some vid of this, should be spectacular. And if they miss it...our enemies will know that our capability to shoot flying objects is in the toilet.
