[QUOTE="Orionblamblam, post: 357940, member: 90"] Black paint was considered as an anti-satellite weapon from the earliest days of anti-satellite thinking. It's easy and cheap and likely reliable, plus it doesnt leave much of signature that can be picked up by other sensors. Energetic systems can be detected but a ziplock baggie fully of paint, hurled by a passing satellite with a tiny bursting charge timed to go off shortly before intercept, would be hard to detect.
