Tony cleared his throat. "Well, as Katrina points out so aptly, there you have it. It’s our way or the highway. The very good news is, we have successfully defeated the KH-13 satellite. Using this weapon, we burned the KH-13 so effectively that it will never be trusted again. We have proved that, with this telescope, we have a covert device which is also the world’s first and only effective spacewar weapon. With this laser capability in place, we can defeat any craft that any space power ever puts into orbit."
