DescriptionSM-3 climbs into the sky for a satellite destruction mission.jpg | 2008-02-20 - A single modified tactical RIM-161 Standard Missile 3 (SM-3) launches from the U.S. Navy AEGIS cruiser USS Lake Erie (CG-70), successfully impacting a non-functioning National Reconnaissance Office satellite approximately 247 kilometers (133 nautical miles) over the Pacific Ocean, as it traveled in space at more than 17,000 mph. President George W. Bush decided to bring down the satellite because of the likelihood that the satellite could release hydrazine fuel upon impact, possibly in populated areas. | |||||||
