In principle this is not science fiction, Space Shuttle captured a satellite, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STS-49 , they just didn't return it back. It was a catch, fix, and release.

Good point, but I think radical ideas that end up being eventually accepted, and also ending up taking the name the opponents give them, sometimes as ridicule, are notable.

It’s also interesting that the idea of a Big Bang originated with Georges Lemaître — a Catholic priest and theoretical physicist. He called it the "hypothesis of the primeval atom” initially. The term itself was invented by his opponen

Too high of a bar. She would have to have an intent specifically to betray and hurt the US and act on it. Just acting or just having an intent is not enough.

Sorry, I am trying to follow, but it's a bit ambiguous. It is laughable that the instructor would take controls away, or laughable that they wouldn't, or that in a military subordinate structure there can be retaliations. I am up
