Ranson Will Be Excited...

...to learn that one of his favorite sci-fi books has taken another step towards reality. Check out Space.com's article mentioning Ender's Game, which talks about the USAF's foray into Space Warfare.

My first thought was actually about Heinlein's The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, since he who controls the high orbitals controls the world.

Can you say high-energy kinetic weapons?
