He knew nothing of the VA belts because no one did and the sats were equipped and found the VA belts because of project-A(r)gus which was undertaken to create a belt which it did.

It was VA that discovered that there were other belts that were completely separate from the project-A(r)gus detonations and that was why they were named after him.

I still don't see your point......do you have evidence that either person said that there was no way to safely penetrate the belts?

Guys the ban of that word is difficult because it was the name of a series of space nuclear detonations and not the news source......
