Often seen in fiction as vulnerable locations at the mercy of space-based weapons and fleets, we will see that they are far more hardened targets, able to serve as bastions against attack.

Christian McCracken Is there a website which will tell me the best area near me for stargazing? Yakov - Bargal Analytical Instruments Hi Fraser. You think that if one country, lets say China, will decide to put huge sattelite with laser to clear LEO from debris, other countries will alow it? It is a game changing weapon after all. Dani Filth Hey Fraser if Hawking could have lived a couple of months again he would have seen what he spent most of his life studying; an actual photograph of a black hole Máté Matolcsy Hi Fraser! Great show, I have a question. What are the most expensive but technically still realistic space missions that have been proposed so far? What could we achieve with today's economy and technology if we fell into an Apollo mindset again? Homu How does long hair act under artificial gravity? Will it hang down or stream backwards? Matthew Ryan did you set your green screen to Endor on purpose? Jim Becker Fraser, what method do you think will be the real reason for mankind's death here on Earth, will it be from our Sun diving and engulfing us in some X number of years from now or will it be because we finally get that big asteroid hitting us like what killed off the dinosaurs, or will it be because someone gets mad at someone and starts a nuclear war or because our magnetic shield decays and allowing in killer redaction, or because our Ozone layer depletes, so on and so on. (to many different ways I can't name them all). framedropfilms Hey Fraser, great channel. My seven year old son Hayden is fascinated by space and wonders how large (in light years) is our galaxy from one end to the other and how long would it take with our current technology to traverse this distance. Thanks and keep up the excellent work. Steve and Hayden

On Tuesday the Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats warned about threats from space at the Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on worldwide threats. He said, "As if we don't have enough threats here on earth, we need to look to the heavens — threats in space." He added that, "The global expansion of the space industry will extend space-enabled capabilities and situational awareness to nation-states and commercial space actors in the coming years. The primary concern relates to satellites and anti-satellite capabilities." Currently, the US military is heavily reliant on GPS and signals sent between satellites in space. http://www.businessinsider.com/dan-coats-us-space-attack-2018-2 http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

The House of Representatives' version of a defense policy bill mandates the creation of a new military service, the "Space Corps", by January 2019. Yet the Air Force already has a space command, and many in the military think the House's bill would create needless complexity and bureaucracy in the U.S. Armed Forces. Is the Space Corps a good idea? AEI's Mackenzie Eaglen offers her thoughts.

Industrialization was finally improving quality of life for a lot of us, science was making incredible bounds, and our sights were set on the stars. It seemed to many that we were on a trajectory to a space-faring technological utopia. The United Federation of Planets was just around the corner. But the possibility of a much darker space age also loomed: one in which the space around the Earth became highly militarized, and in fact massively weaponized.

Did the Real 'Star Wars' Bankrupt the USSR? In the 1980’s science fact and science fiction looked as if they might become one when the American President Ronald Reagan announced the 'Strategic Defence Initiative' or 'Star Wars' missile defence system. The program was designed to break the nuclear deadlock between the US and Soviets and move beyond the threat of M.A.D. or Mutual Assured Destruction. You can now translate this and other curious droid videos, see my video about it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLPVgIytKyg The Curious Droid merchandise shop is now open too on Teespring : https://teespring.com/stores/curious-droid. But did the nuclear physicist Edward Teller over-sell the idea to Ronald Reagan and only tell him what he wanted to hear? Even as the world reacted to America's new defence plan, Teller's theories remained decades away from forming a working weapon. So how did just the threat of 'Star Wars' change the world without being put into action?

According to NASA, by February 2015, there were 12,202 known Near –Earth Objects (NEO’s). This figure represents just a small fraction of more than 1.000.000 NEO’s believed to exist , vast number of which up-to-date remain unidentified. These NEO’s represent a major danger to our planet, as they are capable of destroying large cities, and in some cases, even an entire continent. This is a clear and present danger, evidenced by the fact that a person is 14 times more likely to get killed by an asteroid than by terrorists. Although agencies such as NASA and ESA are mapping the skies, politics and technological impediments prevent them from developing an adequate deflection or disruption program in the foreseeable future.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation - Zeus in action HD G.I. Joe: Retaliation is a 2013 American science fiction action film directed by Jon M. Chu, based on Hasbro's G.I. Joe toy, comic and media franchises. It is a sequel to 2009's G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.[7][8] The film was written by Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. G.I. Joe: Retaliation features an ensemble cast, starring Bruce Willis and Dwayne Johnson, with Channing Tatum, Arnold Vosloo, Ray Park, Jonathan Pryce, and Byung-hun Lee reprising their roles from the first film. The film was released in North America on March 28, 2013. It was a box office success, as was its 2009 predecessor, grossing over $371 million worldwide.[6] However, the film received mostly negative reviews, scoring a 28% on Rotten Tomatoes.[9 The Joes are framed for stealing nuclear warheads from Pakistan by Zartan (Arnold Vosloo) who is impersonating the President of the United States (Jonathan Pryce). The entire team is eliminated in a military strike, with Duke (Channing Tatum) as one of the casualties. Roadblock (Dwayne Johnson), Flint (D.J. Cotrona) and Lady Jaye (Adrianne Palicki) are the only survivors. Meanwhile, Storm Shadow (Byung-hun Lee) and ex-Joe Firefly (Ray Stevenson) rescue Cobra Commander (Luke Bracey) from an underground maximum-security prison in Germany. Storm Shadow is injured during the escape, and retreats to a temple in the Himalayas to recover. Upon learning that he is alive, the Blind Master (RZA), leader of the Arashikage Clan, sends Snake Eyes (Ray Park) and his apprentice Jinx (Elodie Yung), Storm Shadow's cousin, to capture Storm Shadow so he can answer for the murder of his uncle, the Hard Master. Roadblock, Flint, and Lady Jaye return to the United States where they set up a base of operations in a rundown gym. After Zartan announces that Cobra will replace the Joes as America's main protective unit, Lady Jaye deduces that someone is impersonating the President, and Roadblock leads them to General Joseph Colton (Bruce Willis), who provides them with weapons and helps them infiltrate a fundraising event that the President will be attending. Lady Jaye steals a sample of the President's DNA and confirms that he is Zartan. They escape after a brief confrontation with Firefly and Zandar (Matt Gerald), the head of the Presidential Detail and a member of Cobra. Snake Eyes and Jinx locate and capture Storm Shadow after a battle with ninjas and take him back to Japan, where Storm Shadow reveals that Zartan murdered the Hard Master and he joined Cobra to avenge his uncle. Storm Shadow then accompanies Snake Eyes and Jinx as they join the Joes' efforts to stop Cobra. Zartan invites the world leaders to a summit, where he blackmails them into disabling their nuclear arsenals, and reveals that he has created Project Zeus: seven orbital kinetic bombardment weapons of mass destruction at his command. He destroys central London to prove his superiority, and threatens to destroy other capitals if the countries don't submit to Cobra. However, Storm Shadow betrays Cobra Commander and kills Zartan, revealing Cobra's deception to the world leaders. While Snake Eyes, Jinx, and Flint fight Cobra's soldiers, Cobra Commander activates the remaining six weapons and instructs Firefly to protect the launch device. Firefly is killed in combat by Roadblock, who deactivates and destroys the orbital weapons. Meanwhile, Colton and Lady Jaye rescue the President. Cobra Commander escapes during the battle and Storm Shadow disappears after avenging his uncle. The real President addresses the nation at a ceremony where Roadblock, Lady Jaye, Flint, Jinx, and Snake Eyes are commemorated as heroes. Colton salutes each of them, and presents Roadblock with a M1911 pistol belonging to General George S. Patton, to use when he finally finds Cobra Commander. Roadblock proudly raises the weapon and lets out a single shot in honor of his fallen comrades.

I found this series of TV advertisements while digitally transferring a football game from the early 80's off an old VHS tape. American propaganda commercial from the peak of The Cold War, the early 1980's. This commercial featuring a young Newt Gingrich touts the concept of SDI - the Strategic Defense Initiative or "Star Wars". This concept was the brainchild of then U.S. President Ronald Reagan. Many credit the mere idea of SDI as having helped put an end to The Cold War, as the U.S.S.R. had spent too many rubles on all their nuclear warheads and did not want their power to be negated by a U.S. missile shield defense system. http://www.highfrontier.org/Highfrontier/index.html

SETI Archive: http://seti.org/talks Our panelists will present three 15 minute technical and scientific presentations on standard space and nuclear weapons capabilities and effectiveness, national requirements and intentions, existing conventions and potential future agreements, followed by 15 minutes for questions and discussion. All discussions will be on unclassified or declassified material. Pete Worden will give a briefing on United States, Russian, Chinese and other nations postures on weapons in space, nuclear and non-nuclear, (from pistols in Soyuz capsules on up to Star Wars) how they have evolved, why they have worked so far and how he sees them working in the future, and how they can best be shaped in the future. Will Marshall will talk about space agreements of the future and Pavel Podvig will talk about the arsenals of different nations.
