question is who do they want to use the new weapon against? best to my knowledge they still haven't acknowledged there is intelligent life besides ourselves in the universe that are interstellar travel capable . but they do say their is a possibility.
imo if there is other life in the universe, capable of interstellar travel they would more than likely be more technologically advanced than us, capable interstellar travel at light speed or faster, why wouldn't they go out and intercept and blow it/ shoot down before it reached it's target, wasn't it two days before dart reached it's target, if so and they are capable of light speed or faster travel that should be plenty of time to reach it, or if they cant blow it up, pack up their shit and leave.
hell they might not even need to go out and blow it up /shoot it down, they might even have weapons that could reach out and
stop it from where they are sitting.
if they are really wanting to defend earth from ET, they need to get on the stick and invent some sort of light speed or faster than light or warp
engine and craft to put them in, with weapons to match, cause ET is more than likely able to nuke (for lack of a better word) earth from orbit and there ain't a damn thing we can do about it.
could it be they are wanting to use it on other country's that may be planing on mining asteroids or god forbid the moon or other planets in our solar system. they best think about shootin off at sh@@ like that. even though they claim that other bodies have minimal effect on earth taking pocks shoots at shit it our solar system could cause hell here on earth.
