    kind of. yeah. i mean, don’t get me wrong- it’s patently nuts.

    in theory, however, there’s plausible deniability. Especially if they have some means of disguising the launch. Going up into orbit is common enough it could have just been a satellite launch. or maybe it was really the ESA that’s doing it with all their asteroid RV missions.
