Safety is essential to any transportation system whether on land, sea or air, and space shuttles are a vivid example of that axiom.
Cost and Capability: Cost concerns alone should dictate rejection of a completely ground-based defensive system in favor of one that uses both ground and space elements.
Similarly, the parking system shrinks the amount of space required for parking cars and provides customers with a convenient and secure parking method versus conventional alternatives.
The larger 128GB version offers a bit more space at 83GB, but is still losing a massive 45GB of space to the full Windows 8 operating system and various included applications.

It's been a while since we last heard of the ISERV Pathfinder, an imaging instrument that consists of a camera, telescope and pointing system that was sent up to the International Space Station last July.
Two of the four gyroscopes - part of the space station's pointing and navigating system - were initially shut down but the crew installed a jumper cable to bring up a third gyroscope, leaving the station in a much more stable position, AP says.
China's concern was that the American missile defence system would lead to increasing use of space for military purposes and fuel an arms race.
"Each meteorite is a time capsule and space probe recording the history of our solar system from 4.5 billion years ago, " said Caroline Smith, curator of meteorites at London's Natural History Museum.
To do that, the system essentially bombards the space with an array of wireless signals and keeps watch on any changes in signal strength, building up a "picture" of the room in the process.
