What is impractical? How much have we spent, and do we continue to spend, on creating and maintaining our stable of nuclear armed ICBM's?
Things are a bit differenct in space. You could build The Empire State Building out of construction paper and it would survive in space. Nothing is subjected to pressure and gravity like on earth. So this mirror wouldn't have to be a big solid piece of glass over a big solid piece of silver-colored whatever. It could be a membrane on a frame.
It is NOT beyond reason.

Well let's start off with building a one mile diameter object in space, now what about keeping it in orbit, maintaining orbit, being able to manuevor in orbit, dodging space debris, oh and being able to hide this from every other country capable of launching a rocket into space to destroy it.
