The Air Force's top general has ordered a wide-ranging review of the vulnerabilities of U.S. military satellites — one that could lead to the lifting of restrictions on using force against another country's space capabilities — because of continuing alarm over a successful Chinese missile test.
U.S. Navy Adm. William J. Fallon, the admiral in charge of American forces in Asia, said that he believes North Korea has no missile capable of reaching long distances and is unlikely to have one "for a while."
