America’s spy satellite destroyed before crash!
America has destroyed its spy satellite US-193 in space before its toxic fuel tank crashes to Earth, a Pentagon source said on Thursday.
America has shown its technical capability once again by this intelligent act. America has destroyed this satellite by a missile fired from a US Navy warship.
“The missile’s been launched and was a successful intercept,” the source said.
The Pentagon said last week that President George Bush had decided the Navy should try to shoot down the satellite because its tank of hazardous hydrazine could leak if it enters the atmosphere and reaches Earth.
It is known that Russia and China have expressed concern about the operation and criticized America. The Russian Defense Ministry said it could be used as cover to test a new space weapon.
Washington has insisted the operation is purely to prevent people being harmed by the satellite’s fuel load.
