Now this, is a game changer. Everyone is speculating what it did, can and will do. From special recce, to orbital strike to kidnapping enemy satelites, the theories are reaching alien conspiracy levels.
Fun thing is, the recce, strike and satelite kidnap scenarios aren't that far-fetched.
I'm pretty impressed that it is so in the open, yet still secret enough that nobody really knows what it did up there.
This is a really exciting vehicle. Lots of possible missions and seemingly a capability that no other country can match at the moment. I wonder if the Buran really did get destroyed in that hangar collapse.
Agreed about the openness of the project. Perhaps because it started as a publicly funded NASA program?
It will be interesting to see how quickly they can turn it around for another mission.
