According to ABC News, Russia may want to use a nuclear weapon against satellites rather than drop it on the Earth. One of the media's sources called such reports "a big deal," which is "very concerning and very sensitive."

I thought space was considered off limits for this kind of stuff due to the risk of making earth orbit so full of debris that space becomes totally inaccessible to humanity. Super fucked up but this is Russia we're talking about I suppose.

I mean. Nukes are basically off limits too so if you're considering that why not space too.
