stupid news. if they just stop the space station in space with a rocket booster, the tool box that the silly mare let go off will drift round back to them in the time it takes for a tool box to do an orbit.

If you instantly reduced the orbital speed of the ISS to 0, which would occur first, the station hitting the ground or the tool box completing one orbit? Without doing the maths, my money is on the ground-hitting...
