France's SYLEX sounding rocket successfully left the atmosphere, a test linked to preparing the future M51-4 nuclear missile. The launch, reported by Clubic, is being described as French generals preparing for the next generation of the country's sea-based nuclear deterrent. Commenters highlight the contrast between a science rocket flight and its ultimate military purpose.

Why now: The successful SYLEX launch is new, and its explicit link to the nuclear M51-4 missile is drawing attention.
