Today,edward city has tested a 50Mt Nuclear Device 1600km away from earth.The edward city scientists have elected this place because the radiation will disappear in 2 or 3 days.The test was made with the help of the Air Force Space Command of Edward City.

If it is for sale, and if the technology is not classified, Oslea may consider buying the plans to the launch system and the nuclear bomb. If you would take the time to do so, we would appreciate it, and may buy the weapons platform and projectiles for it.

Was the weapon launched from space, or from earth?
How much did the whole operation and equipment cost?
Did you experience any setbacks/problems?
What would be required to pull this off?
(ooc question: is this Modern Tech (now-2015), Post Modern (2015-2050), or future tech?)

Congratulations on a successful test! We await your reply.

OOC: would you be upset if we nuked your space forces, for screwing up the atmosphere? ICCD isn't on "earth" anyway. Honestly I'm so bored I contemplated lauching a full scale nuclear attack on your 'pathetic nation', but realized it wouldn't be in character. I don't mean it is pathetic I am just bored. My gosh I'm so bored I'm here.. and now I'm more bored then here and I never get bored. Feel like war or something?

IC:
ICCD is a little concerned that you may be causing damage to your upper atmosphere and causing nuclear fallout to enter your atmosphere. The moon is some 385,000 km away from earth. Of course we can only assume you know what you are doing.

Yes,nut the test was calculated to dificult the reentry of radiactive material.We made the test at a space station with an electromagnetic shield.And to Oslea,the plans are classified,we haven't any problem during the test,we launched the weapon from a space platform,the technology is post-modern tech and the cost was of about 5,000,000,000 edolars.

We will sell you the plans,now the defence minister is searching the plans on the database and you will have them tomorrow.

Thanks.

Albert Mainzer,President of the United States of Edward City.

Thanks Mationbuds,our nuclear weapons are only for peaceful uses like destroy aproaching asteroids and other things.

Icovir is worried about this nuclear test for the following reasons:

1) There are space stations (including the one we're building) up there

2) Nuclear fallout will enter the atmosphere above whatever country the bomb detonated at (therefore killing it's citizens, an act of war)

Have you read my reply to ICCD?The electromagnetic shield of the satellite impides any escapes of radioactivity to the atmosphere.And two days after the test,the satellite will be tower to another solar system and here,the electromagnetic shield will fall and the radioactivity will disappear in the space.So don't worry and be water my friend.Now i'm writing the article of this nuclear test at the nswiki.The test forms part of Operation Space Cowboy.

The Imperial Senate is fearful of the tests that you are conducting, and their changes to local and gobal culture. We do not wish war, but we frown upon Nuclear actions of any kind. We request that a liazon, me, to be sent to your country, just to moniter your actions, and make sure, no lfie is lost, and you mean no harm to our Empire.

Ok and don't worry.The radiation escapes have been calcylated.Is practicaly impossible an escape of radiation.

Today,when the Gamma Station(place were the nuclear weapon has been tested) was being transported to the tau ceti system,an explotion on the core of the Station has caused death to all the 2,000 members of the crew of the ECSC Aquarelleon, a Galactica-class Battlestar and leaving the ship floating very damaged in the space.Today,the ECSC Galactica has departed the Mars Anchorage to the Aquarelleon to rescue the 123 survivors of this tragedy and tow the ship to the Jupiter Station.
