Etymology

[view · edit · purge]In the context of spaceflight, a satellite is an artificial object which has been intentionally placed into orbit. Such objects are sometimes called artificial satellites to distinguish them from natural satellites such as the Moon.

Artificial satellites with weapons are a common science-fiction trope, as the concept of firing such a weapon from deep space carries with it a sense of being advanced/futuristic technology. A similar concept had been floated during the Cold War, when the United States was supposedly developing a project colloquially named "Star Wars"; using satellites, the Armed Forces would have been authorized to intercept incoming missiles, etc. from an aggressor before those projectiles would reach Earth. The project never came to fruition, but the fantasy behind it remains a popular one.
