Federal budget cuts are compelling the US Air Force to shut down its space surveillance system, which detects and tracks objects and satellites orbiting the Earth, but costs the agency $14 million a year.
The surveillance system, also known as the “Space Fence” due to its vertical transmission of a “fence” of radar energy that can deter any objects from crossing it, has been in operation since 1961 and is outdated, Commander of the Air Force Space Command General William Shelton said in a news release. Rather than spend any more money on old technology, the Air Force will disable it and instead work on a new system that can more precisely locate objects orbiting the Earth.

I thought these were the pricks that were/are spraying chemtrails to kill us all. Everytime I see one of MOFO chemtrail planes passing dumping shit on earth and humanity, I fantasize this.
Captain Kirk: On screen. Captain to engineering. Yes captain. Scottie we have another humanity suicide machine. Get ready for full photon hit. Aiye Captain. Mr Zulu, on my command full photon hit to direct center of aircraft. FIRE.
Mr Zulu: Direct hit to aircraft sir. All particles less than one micron.
Captain James Tiberius Kirk: Mr. Spock, last 2400 what has been the termination in total.
Mr. Spock: 1,211 aircraft planet wide, captain.
Captain Kirk: Good job for one day. Tomorrow we commence destruction of all runway facilities
and chemical storage devices.
That just sends goose bumps up and down my back. That's my favorite dream.
