The new theory of success proposed by the US Space Force is an attempt to justify the force component in space exploration. Obviously, these plans have to be judged not only as a new Manhattan project, but also as a military-economic support for the establishment of a new world order In February ...
... no immediate reason to worry about this project at this stage. Of course, if you put aside the grossly overrated nuclear dimension and look into the future of technologies, you will have every reason to be concerned about what might happen someday in space around our planet. All of us depend on satellites more and more. Today, they are widely used by both public and private sectors, and every year thousands of satellites arrive in already crowded orbits. To blind even a few of them—for example, with high-precision laser beams—would mean inflicting immense strategic, economic, social or other damage upon any country, damage comparable to that of ...
... purposes (and already are: commercial Earth remote sensing services are still inferior to the military ERS services, but their large scale potentially makes for faster information delivery due to higher numbers of flyovers over the targets), the U.S. Space Force plans to build a multi-layered “national” constellation of more than one thousand satellites that will handle the tasks of communication, missile defence, missile attack warning [ 3 ], intelligence (with top speed information transfer directly on the battlefield) and navigation at a drastically new level. To give the reader an ...
... militarization of space, which uses the outer domain to gather information from satellites for strategic, planning, and surveillance purposes, such as locating sites of undisclosed nuclear facilities, began simultaneously with the technological domination of space by then rivals the USA and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. The looming weaponization of space, on the other hand, will make a more direct utilization of space as a dimension for military attacks carried out by space-based weapons systems directed at both the orbit ...
... Soviet and U.S. achievements of the 1960s (or the early 1970s at best). None of the aforementioned space agencies has so far progressed to even the second stage of the erstwhile Soviet and U.S. research, namely the creation of space stations and/or reusable manned spacecraft. The so-called second space race was a political imitation rather than an actual space exploration competition. The leading space powers failed to even repeat the successes of 50 years ago. The U.S. failed to resurrect the Apollo Lunar module ...
Acquisition of Space Systems, Volume 7. Past Problems and Future Challenges . More than a review The past five years has been a period of stagnation in space policy research. The small number of papers that have been produced centre primarily on the intellectual potential ...
... Europeans expressed an official interest in the reusable manned Dream Chaser orbital transportation system developed by American Sierra Nevada Corporation [15] . Speaking of the new manned spacecraft, it is worth noting that Boeing is developing a reusable Crew Space Transportation-100 (CST-100) vehicle [16] . The CST-100 can accommodate up to seven passengers or a mix of crew and cargo. Although during the initial stage testing and transporting astronauts will involve the International Space Station (ISS),...
... the document expressed readiness “to intensify actions, including coordinated sectoral sanctions, that will have an increasingly significant impact on the Russian economy” [8] . In early April, formal American sanctions were extended to space cooperation. NASA Associate Administrator Michael O’Brien wrote in a memo that the US government had determined that all NASA contacts with Russian government representatives were suspended, including NASA travel to Russia and visits by Russian ...
... mobilize resources and organize a manned mission to the Mars. But the economic and military dividends of the Mars project would be as small as from the flight to the Moon. In the 1980ies the discussions went into the second round. The launch in 1981 of a Space Shuttle reusable system gave Washington hope to achieve military space supremacy. In 1983 the Reagan’s Administration declared the concept of Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI.) This was a full scale space based ABM system for the destruction of Soviet intercontinental ...
