Argh!

The Pentagon wants to shoot down that failing spysat. Do we really want to encourage more ASAT activity after last year's disastrous Chinese test? It wouldn't be hard to ruin LEO for decades. Argh.

That's a good point I hadn't thought of. The chances of anyone getting hurt by the fuel are a lot smaller than it landing where the 'bad guys' might get a look at it first.
