When you need to call down the thunder to deal with those pesky biters, launch a rocket with an ion cannon into orbit and show the bugs who's boss.
Update for Factorio 2.1
When I build the Orbital Ion Cannon on the space platform, it will explode immediately and receive the message "Error while running event Kux - OrbitallonCannon: on _ built _ entity (ID 6) LuaEntity API call when LuaEntity was invalid. stack traceback: [C]: in function 'index' _ Kux - OrbitallonCannon/control.lua:212: in function 'fnc' _ Kux - CoreLib__/lib/EventDistributor.lua:161: in function < Kux - CoreLib/lib/EventDistributor.lua:151>"
