What Did The Air Force Just Launch Into Space?

They've sent Brucie up on a secret shuttle mission to go nuke Nibibobalooloo.

No not THAT Brucie, this Brucie...

Just talked to my uncle... He said they launched a rocket.

I'll bring in the tomato plants.

Seems to be quite a coincidence that the AF would launch a vehicle into space just a day or so before we're supposed to have an asteroid/meteorite buzz by the earth BETWEEN the earth and the moon (yes, that's close!) and a larger one in a few days that is supposed to be well outside of the lunar orbit but that one is like 4 or 5 kilometers in length - big enough to put the planet into a nuclear winter for a long time so they say.

If one or both of these objects should somehow start to head onto a collision course with earth - would/could the military use an Energy Weapon / Laser / Scalar Beam Weapon to either move this thing or break it up into many smaller and hopefully less harmful sized chunks? Seems like this might explain the timing for this launch. But then who knows?

At 1:03 p.m. eastern time on Tuesday afternoon, the U.S. Air Force launched an unmanned Atlas 5 rocket into space from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The rocket’s cargo, a small shuttle called the X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle, is an autonomous spacecraft that’s been under development by the U.S. government for over a decade –though very few people know exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Nice to see people still in awe of things launched into
orbit by a rocket.

Basically, a drone controlled from HQ that can take out enemy satellites. Once operational, it's faster, cheaper, and more accurate than launching archaic rockets from the ground.

Not so dramatic. Just a new way of inserting field comms at will. Also supposed to repair and refuel sats still in orbit...future development.

Not 'WHAT' but....'WHO'????

Have you ever tried to power a high energy device with a solar panel?

They just want to destroy the annoying asteroid from the other thread.

Hey MORON, how can you be SURE they don't have some kind of small nuclear reactor (like those of the nuclear submarines) hidden inside that thing?

Hey moron dontcha' know that russia and china has nuke sniffers just like we do?

Ah, no. It's "whom".
