The article says its the second time this weapon has been tested. Regardless, an awesome success.

The video, released by the US Navy, shows the USS John Finn attempting to hit a medium-range ballistic missile.

A similar experiment earlier in the year failed but this time it manages to successfully hit the missile in space

I wouldn't consider a missle in space fixed, would you?

Fixed doesnt mean stationary; it could have a predetermined or predicted path versus a vehicle which can change course

This is actually a pretty big issue already, and will be a bigger one going forward. Hopefully those smart folks can think of something.
