44% increase in risk for ISS after India's Anti-Satellite Missile test NASA Chief Jim Bridenstine

Isn’t this test done by US on Indian behalf? Americans have themselves to blame for this. :cheesy:
it was done at an altitude where most of the debris would simply burn up in the atmosphere or fall into the Indian Ocean, so it is not as big of a deal as some are portraying.
 
@The Deterrent @Oscar please your comments?
Not really a big deal. The ISS will maneuver to avoid any incoming debris, the chance of which is highly unlikely. The debris will decay within weeks at best or months at worst. Space has seen worse debris field, and sees it to this day (reference: Chinese ASAT test).

NASA chief has to naturally object because this is nevertheless a condemn-able action, regardless of whoever has done it before. Space debris is no joke, even a slight miscalculation can lead to a chain-reaction of debris generation in that orbit.
 
@The Deterrent Thank you. No such type of test from our side in near future? And what about far in future?
Nope, no chance in near future.
Very slight possibility maybe in far far future.
In other words, na hi samajhiye. :P

Pakistan's deterrence requirements are being met and will continue to be met by the 'Full Spectrum Deterrence' model. The only case of that model being challenged is if India deploys an extensive network of SBIRS-equivalent satellites with associated radar infrastructure and interceptors i.e. a comprehensive BMD network. Until then, the present model is more than enough to keep India at bay.

Pakistan should focus on improving its economy both in the near and far future.
 
44% increase in risk for International Space station(ISS) after India's anti satellite missile test NASA chief Jim Bridenstine. He also said "We have human lives at stack here and It is not acceptable for us to allow people to create orbital debris fields"

This isn't for indians. All this hoopla is so that no one else (you know who) reciprocate these tests...
