    OK. You are thinking out of the box, great! (True, why would SP programmers even conceive of retro-rockets?) @SledDriver

    @GermanWarMachine The problem is that firing a gun at a large piece of space debris just turns that piece into thousands of slightly smaller, but just as deadly, pieces of space debris.

    @Stingray yeah, those are the retro rockets, only fired when the shuttle needs to slow down for reentry. As there's no such thing in SP, i made them purely decorative.

    FYI this build does not activate the upper two thrusters. I like the body, though!

    @GermanWarMachine Probably to do with feasibility and money.

    Yeah, and how could it be a 1 hour drive? At the most you could only go like. 90, and for an extremly short period of time due to fuel. @GermanWarMachine

    @GermanWarMachine That's the NASA space shuttle you're talking about. This is just a space shuttle. And in any case, there's no reason you couldn't mount a weapon on a space shuttle. What if you wanted to destroy some enemy satellites, or vaporize space debris?

    @WaspWaspWasp Some people like NASCAR-type cars, others like sleek, understated black/dark grey cars. Some people love rainbow colors, others like blacks and greys. Generally, blacks and greys are associated with good taste. Think of good suits, high-class cars, etc.
