that it's on it's way. At least any of the big 8 will as well as large govts
etc. Any of these organisations will have their own satellites and monitoring
gear and can almost certainly determine wether that crowbar up in space is
likely to land on their Toys 'N Stuff subsid.
So what do they do ?
a) They issue a threat to the people who launched the missile (don't forget
these things will probably have to circle the earth once or twice at least).
Either you activate the self destruct or prepare for corp war !
b) They take counter measures. For missiles ecm circuitry, or how about
anti-missile missiles (Patriots I believe), heavy duty ground based lasers,
scrambled aircraft, the list could go on.
See why it would never really happen ?
Phill.
