[edit] Militarisation of Space

This page exists as the introduction to what looks to be a POV original research / crystal ball article. I really don't see anything NPOV arising out of this that wouldn't be better suited to an existing article like spy satellites. Delete. — Lomn | Talk / RfC 20:44:00, 2005-08-28 (UTC)

• Delete all content but save as a stub -- the milit. of space is a real thing, and not the same as (but related to) spy satellites. Paul Klenk 21:00, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

Except -- what is it? AFAIK, there is no militari(z)ation of space apart from spy satellites. Isn't space a weapons-free zone per some treaty or other? I don't disagree with a redirect in principle save that I don't see any content to redirect to.

Lomn, militarisation of space is about how nations are becoming more and more interested in space weaponry and space defense mechanisms. It was the Collaboration of the Week last week, so it is actually notable. ral315 17:51, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
