The act of commencing a high yeild military strike on a planet's surface using a satallite or spacecraft as a weapons platform.
Attacks of this manner can be noted for the ability to deliver increasingly large amounts of firepower to a surface target anywhere in the hemisphere with accuracy rivaling that of a smart-bomb due to all targets being in the Line of Sight.
These attacks are also nearly impossible to defend against, as solid projectiles must fight gravity to engage attacking ships and orbiting vessels can manuver better than ground targets. Thus dramaticly reducing the risk of the attack...
Single precision attacks are often reffered to as an orbital strike while more powerful salvo and barrage styled attacks tend to be used for leveling a metropolis or larger.
Uses of an Orbital Bombarment include Ground-Force Suppression, Instalation Neutralization, and for those of us with no reguard for civilian life... Genocide.

A method of shooting liquor, usually vodka, by placing a full shot glass against the orbital bone around your eye and letting the alcohol absorb through your eyeball.
While this method delivers the alcohol quickly and directly into your brain, it has a high chance of causing blindness, sometimes permanently. May also cause you to bang your sister.
