Parliamentary briefing
The Greenpeace flagship SV Rainbow Warrior set sail on 12th February from Auckland, New Zealand for the Pacific Star Wars test site, to protest against the next scheduled test of the system and to call on President Bush to scrap the programme.
The next test of the Star Wars system is scheduled for sometime between March and June. The Rainbow Warrior will arrive in mid-March at the US Army Missile Testing Range at Kwajalein atoll in the Marshall Islands, where the launch site is located for the so called "kill vehicle" - a missile intended to intercept a simulated enemy missile fired from the Vandenberg US Air Force Base in California.
