I can't think of anything more enjoyable than skeet shooting in outer space.

Someone who knows more (which would be all of you) than I please confirm:
Didn't a F-15 launch a missile that took out a satellite during the 80's?

ASM-135 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASM-135) ASAT test launch.


From January 1984 to September 1986, an F-15A was used as a launch platform for five ASM-135 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASM-135_ASAT) anti-satellite (ASAT) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-satellite_weapon) missiles. The F-15A went into a Mach 1.22, 3.8 g climb of 65° and released the ASAT missile at an altitude of 38,100 feet (11.6 km). The F-15A computer was updated to control the zoom-climb and missile release. The third test flight involved a retired communications satellite in a 345 statute mile (555 km) orbit, which was successfully destroyed by sheer kinetic energy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy). The pilot, USAF Major Wilbert D. "Doug" Pearson, became the only pilot to destroy a satellite.[32] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-15_Eagle#_note-14)[33] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-15_Eagle#_note-asat)
The ASAT missile was designed to be a standoff anti-satellite weapon, with the F-15A acting as a first stage. The Soviet Union could interpret a U.S. rocket launch with a spy satellite loss, but an F-15 carrying an ASAT would blend in among hundreds of F-15 flights.
