> fire a missile from a U.S. Navy cruiser, Assuming for the moment that there's anything to the story... The missile will presumably be an SM-3 fired from an AEGIS cruiser. The missile has a nominal operating ceiling of 160 km; I'd guess the intercept would be on a descending pass over the Pacific with the ship somewhere in the vicinity of Hawaii. Maybe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
