I was having a conversation with a co-worker and I mentioned some interesting weapon ideas. One of the things we both agreed on is that for a weapon type that isn't supposed to exist, orbital weapons are featured in a wide variety of media, such as video games, movies and novels. Yes, I admit it's all science fiction and video games,but hey, it would be a hellova good may to win a fight. Does anyone have any theories or information on if anything like these exist? How do you think it would change warfare ? Would it lead to WW3 like in Tom Clancy's World At War ?

Looking forward to the discussion.
