everyone in their right mind opposed this type of propulsion when it was pointed out that once the craft achieves orbit the nuclear payload can be reset to explode at any distance from the craft required and the thing is in fact an enormous nuclear cannon thinly disguised as a spaceship
in other words
the whole point behind its design was all to do with superior firepower and nothing to do with exploration
no launch detection
no three minute warning
just death from above
I'm probably going to lose sleep over this
