“Starfish Prime was a high-altitude nuclear test conducted by the United States, a joint effort of the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) and the Defense Atomic Support Agency. It was launched from Johnston Atoll on July 9, 1962, and was the largest nuclear test conducted in outer space, and one of five conducted by the US in space.”

I am not a huge fan of all the nuclear tests that happened, but the name of that one is absolutely epic.
Even if you had no idea what the tests were about, Starfish Prime just sounds evil to the core.
