Today, Saturday May 16, U.S. Space Command performs another launch of its experimental Space Plane, the X-37B, on a classified mission. Space Plane technology is vital to protect U.S. satellites, vital to American military power. Combined with space-based missile defenses, like Brilliant Pebbles, the U.S. could finally escape the trap of Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) and inaugurate a revolutionary new strategy, Strategic Assured National Existence (SANE) based on protecting the lives of the American people instead of merely avenging them. SANE would replace nuclear barbarism with a strategy more consistent with Judeo-Christian values.
