I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

I have to wonder what the accident report would include- Moving without headlights, failure to signal, not yielding the right-of-way... OUI? I'm sure Vodka was involved somehow, though getting a breathalyser there might be problematic.

I really had to think for a minute about OUI. I bet they could do a spectrum analysis of the flaming debris to detect whether it was vodka or cheap beer, and therefore determine who was at fault.

This was not an accident. Iridium keeps careful track of everything that could hit its active commercial satelites. The Russians are testing a new use for their old junk.

That'll teach you to read the instructions!

Would this have anything to do with why my internet is so slow today? =^p

That's just me, sitting in your base, stealing your packets.
