ICBMs missing their targets tends to mean more ICBMs get fired.
And at a certain point the targets really don’t matter.
At a certain point just build a nuke big enough to take the whole planet and u dont need a launch system, but remember to tell ur opponent about it…
Exactly, restart Project Sundial.

Wouldn’t this be very easy to defeat with just a star chart? If they were also able to remove stars from view, sure, I might get where you’re going with this. But adding extra stars? That’s just noise that can be ignored if you know what the stars are supposed to look like. Match up existing stars with yesterday’s chart and anything that doesn’t appear on the chart is discarded.
I dont know where the cuting edge startracker tech is nower days, but in the first cold war this stuff was borderline analog. Basically lining up some light sensors with tubes on them into the position of the stars u wanted to track. If then lets say one star turns into 2 stars (one is just a reflection of a sat) then the chance of fucking up tracking could be 50/50.
But yeah today theres gona be probably 3-12 cameras and some digital wiz calculations, but i doubt that most legacy ICBM systems are upgraded to that.
The angled DOD seal to reflect Walter’s slightly down turned head is a nice touch
It’s the little details that can really make a meme

This is great. A way to stop ICBMs is priceless.
o shit
If astronomers can cancel them out then other sensors can too
Yeah but they do long exposure pictures, not time critical navigation.
