| A dedicated group of people with some engineering knowledge and an achievable amount of money could easily launch a missile into space. Getting to space is easy, staying in space is what's hard. You don't even need a warhead, as long as the missile intersects the data center's orbit, just hitting it at speed will have the same effect as a bomb. The point is moot though, as data centers in space is a complete fantasy that will never happen. |

| Could they really though? Isn't it possible to focus som lasers from someone's backyard and cause damage? |

| Things in space would be safe, but not launch sites or factories or transportation on land. |
