The militarisation of space is happening right now, just like it did in the sea and the air. It’s very likely that humans will continue to shoot each other no matter where they find themselves. But in space, physics is not what we are used to. Conventional arms aren’t going to be used in outer space. So, what choices are on offer? Space based weapon systems will be able to enjoy one advantage over planetary weapons: a lack of friction and gravity. On earth, gravity pulls bullets to the ground, and friction slows it down as it travels through the air. But in the almost perfect vacuum of space there is no friction to slow down a projectile.
