Outer Space

After a long journey among the stars and planets, your destination finally comes into view: earth.

From the moon's orbit, you can see a few satellites floating around the earth, with one of them big enough to be a space station.

What do you do?

Kara's acceleration falls to zero as she focuses her power on her eyebeams. Choosing a spectrum far shorter than most eyes and scanners can see, she begins to bombard any sattellite she recognizes as either an astronomy aid or military with high-energy radiation till any delicate optics and antennas are fried. Given enough time to blind the militaries and scientists of Earth to any details of her arrival, she'll move into orbit and scan the planet for the most advanced and influential nation to make her arrival, their overall level of technology, and any potential surprises and/or points of interest.



Assuming she needs one attack of rank 8 (equivalent to rocket launcher) to sufficiently damage each sattelite till it stops working, and that there are about 1000 sats she needs to damage around Earth, it will take her about an hour and a half to do it. She'll keep the attacks subtle so the authorities think they were fried by cosmic radiation or something. Then she'll move into low orbit - she'll need another 20 minutes to do so at full normal speed without exerting herself.
