"I think the question over whether this capability works has been settled," Defense Secretary Robert Gates told reporters after touring one of the warships that supported the operation Wednesday evening in the Pacific ocean. "The question is what kind of tlireat, how large a threat, how sophisticated a threat (the United States faces)." A network of radars and satellites designed for the U.S. missile defence system confirmed that the successful interception occurred some 250 kilometres (150 miles) over the Pacific Ocean, U.S. officials said Wednesday The missile that struck the satellite reduced it to football-sized chunks, and the Pentagon said it had a "high degree of confidence" its fuel tank was destroyed. Gen.

James Cartwright told reporters at the Pentagon it would be 24-48 hours before a full confirmation would be available on the fuel tank. A senior Pentagon official earlier had said the missile appeared to have struck the fuel tank containing hydrazine, which could have leaked toxic gas over a wide area if it had survived re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere. "The intent here was to preserve human life it was the hydrazine we were after," said Cartwright, who is vice-chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, rejecting Moscow's suggestion it was an anti-missile test. "This is a modified system, this isn't a missile defence system," he said, adding that so far the United States has not seen debris touch the Earth's surface. Storiks by Nick Ai.i.kn and Gordon Raynkr thk daily tklkgraph LONDON To his fellow golfers at Seckford Golf Club near Ipswich, he was "the most boring bloke in the world." but Steve Wright had for years hidden a secret life of domestic violence, cross-dressing, petty theft, failed suicide attempts and an obsession with prostitutes.

Wright was convicted Thursday of murdering five women. He had even tried to strangle an ex-wife on several occasions during a turbulent relationship 20 years before he went on to murder five women in the space of six weeks. Wright, 49, married Diane Cassell in 1987 after they met on the QE2, where Wright was a steward and Cassell worked in the on board shop. During their short courtship, Cassell had seen only the charming, considerate side of Wright that served as his everyday demeanour. But after they set up home in Halstead, Essex, Wright's violent streak came to the fore.

"Steve used to strangle Diane in front of us," said a former neighbour, Elizabeth Roche. Roche, 50, also recalled a trait that was to be repeated years later when Wright turned to murder. "He had an ability to have a violent row one minute and then have a calm conversation with you straight afterwards, as if nothing had happened," she said. "The only way I can describe it is to say he was a real Jekyll and Hyde character." Wright's ability to act normally within a short time of committing acts of violence was one of the features of his life as a serial killer. Exactly why he turned to murder has never been explained, but in a letter to his father, Conrad, written from prison while he was awaiting trial, he said: "Whenever I get upset I tend to bury it deep inside, which I suppose is not a healthy thing to do because the more I do that the more withdrawn I become because I have seen too Serial killer Steve Wright, 49 WERE THERE OTHERS? Detectives want to interview Steve Wright over the disappearance of English estate agent Suzy Lamplugh and a string of other unsolved cases after he was convicted Thursday of murdering five women.

Lamplugh's father Paul has told The Daily Telegraph that police have confirmed to him the serial killer is a potential suspect over the death of his 25-year-old daughter, who worked with Wright on the QE2 and stayed in touch with him before she vanished in July 1986. Lamplugh's body has never been found and she was declared dead in 1994. Police have been told by psychologists that it is "highly likely" Wright, 49, has killed before, and the murders by him of five prostitutes in Ipswich bear striking similarities to several unsolved killings in East Anglia.

AFPOetty Images photo China called on Washington to provide more information and warned of potential international consequences. "China is continuing to closely follow the possible harm caused by the U.S. action to outer space security and relevant countries," foreign ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said. China caused an international outcry when it shot down one of its own weather satellites on Jan. 11, 2007, in what was widely seen as an anti-satellite test.

Asked about China's request that Washington provide information about the satellite strike, Gates said: "We're prepared to share whatever, appropriately, we can." Gates approved the missile strike. much anger and violence in my childhood to last anyone a lifetime." Dr. Glenn Wilson, a consultant psychologist who has studied the case, said Wright's motive for murder was almost certainly sexual and he strangled the women to satisfy a long-standing fetish.
