At what altitude are you not allowed to shoot things down? If no such line exists, what’s stopping governments from shooting each others’ satellites tit-for-tat

- qbrass 4y agoThere's no defined altitude. The laws are too generic and basically say "spacecraft in orbit". Satellites are covered by that in general. The US military doesn't consider aircraft or missiles flying over their borders to be in space and outside of their airspace regardless of altitude.
