United States Patent Number 4,817,495
Issued: April 4, 1989
Invented by: Adam T. Drobot.
Titled: "Defense System for Discriminating Between Objects in
Space".

This patent refers to Eastlund's earlier patent number 4,686,605 as well as
other documents about "Particle Beam Weapons" and "Space-Based Ballistic-Missile
Defense" systems more commonly refer-red to as Star Wars systems. This invention
is intended to work with gamma ray detectors and was described as;

"A defense system and a method for discriminating between armed reentry
vehicles and unarmed objects which are in close proximity of each other. The reentry
vehicles and the unarmed objects are bathed in a cloud of relativistic electrons with
the resulting signatures from heavy objects, i.e., reentry vehicles, being imaged
directly. Detectors sense the location and identity of the reentry vehicles and pass this
information onto a weapons platform for tracking and interception."

In reading this, we are tinked back to other patents described in this chapter,
and can see how these varied uses of Eastlund's original ideas will have far-reaching
effects on the way in which wars are fought.
The importance of this invention to the military is described in the patent;

"Presently, the expected scenario for any large-scale intercontinental
ballistic missile attack includes the deployment of a large number of decoys and
penetration aids in a 'threat cloud' around one or more armed, reentry vehicles in an
attempt to confuse any defense systems set up to counteract the armed missiles...Since
the total number of objects expected in a typical threat cloud may well exceed one
hundred thousand, any truly effective defense system must include a system which is
capable of 'interrogating' all of the objects in the threat cloud and quickly
discriminating between the deadly reentry vehicles and harmless decoys and
penetration aids."

Also in the patent emphasis is placed on the value of a ground-based system
as opposed to other Star Wars systems which rely heavily on earth-orbiting space
hardware. Space borne systems are not as easy to maintain, and more easily disabled
by adversaries. This invention reduces the computing needs of defense systems
significantly. Reducing the number of tracked objects to just those which are a real
threat allows for targeting resources and counter measures to be focused on them
specifically.

The ideal location for this system is also identified as the North Slope of
Alaska, the most likely path for over the pole nuclear missiles. It is also where the
