Space mission concept: Cause severe Kessler Syndrome.
Step one: LAUNCH MANY EXPLODING SATELLITES INTO ORBIT AND BLOW THEM ALL UP
Mission complete.
Cons: GPS is no longer a thing. Satellite internet isn't either. Global communications are vastly slowed. Google Maps never updates again. Weather becomes much harder to predict. Going to space will be very hard until significant effort and money is invested into space-junk capture and disposal. Trillions, if not quadrillions, of dollars in global economic and physical damage.
Pros: More shooting stars.
I think the choice is clear!
