Russian and China have teamed up to present a treaty banning weapons in space to the UN disarmament committee.
Doesn't the outer space treaty already ban offensive weapons in space? Do we really want to ban defensive weapons with China's testing anti-satellite weapons last year? I don't think so. Luckily, the US doesn't see to interested in the treaty.
I have my doubts over whether or not the US would actually sign a treaty (but then again, this is an election year, so anything is possible).
