Yeah, they were kept top secret. The Russians didn't even know about their own missile launch until it actually happened. Hence the reaction by the on-lookers.
Just to clarify a couple things, this video was intended to be a test of blue screen, the only time it really worked was when the, "super secret projectile missile" took out the X-wing, and when George W talked about the H-bomb.
I think we made this during Bush's first term, I can't really remember, haha.
