Heinlein Maneuver

The Heinlein Maneuver was a tactical maneuver first conducted during the Lunar Revolt of 2064 CE.
In the absence of heavy weapons, the rebellious Luna colonists dropped cargo shuttles loaded with rock into Earth's gravity well.The name is derived from a similar occurrence in the novel The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein; in that narrative however, mass drivers were used to "throw rocks" at Earth's gravity well. ()
