SPACE WEAPONS & DEFENSE

The Air Force Research Laboratory is being tasked with investigating rocket based cargo delivery for applications requiring rapid response, and the only game in town is currently SpaceX's Starship. This project is primarily a study, and in my opinion it's unlikely to turn Starship into a point to point transportation system not because of any technological shortcomings, but because of the needs being rather niche and Starship's design not being particularly compatible with the requirements. Having said that, it's entirely possible that follow on projects may want to design something specifically for the purpose if the DoD wants the capability.

The Indian armed forces are all set to conduct the country's first-ever simulated space warfare exercise this week, which will lead to an assessment of the "imminent threats" in the expanse beyond earth and the drafting of a joint space doctrine for futuristic battles. The tri-Service integrated defence staff under the defence ministry is conducting the two-day "IndSpaceEx", with all military and scientific stakeholders on Thursday and Friday, in the backdrop of China's expanding space and counterspace capabilities.

India will conduct its first-ever simulated space warfare exercise sometime in July. This comes after the successful testing of an anti-satellite (A-Sat) missile in March. The exercise will be called ‘IndSpaceEx’ and will basically be a ‘table-top war-game’. Stakeholders from the military and scientific community will participate in the exercise to get a grasp on the strategic challenges in space that need to be handled. The exercise is crucial for the assessment of India’s requirements to ensure the protection of its space assets. Meanwhile, in yet another display of their space ambitions that threaten US supremacy, China launched a rocket with seven satellites from a ship just three days ago.

"A terrible, terrible thing." That's what NASA is calling India's destruction last week of a satellite in orbit. The agency warns that debris from the test - called 'Mission Shakti'- could threaten the International Space Station.

24 pieces of debris from the anti-satellite weapon test that India performed in late March 2019 has been tracked "above the apogee of the International Space Station," according to NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine. The ISS crew is safe. Credit: NASA

In a surprise test of their new Earth-to-space missile, India successfully shot down a low-orbit satellite, while leaders still insist that they’ve always opposed the militarization of space.

President Trump has just announced plans to create a new military Space Force, increasing the prospect of a new theatre of war. How might war in space be fought? Click here to subscribe to The Economist on YouTube: https://econ.st/2xvTKdy The 1,300 active satellites above the earth provide a wide array of services - some of which are vital for emergency response and for the military. An attack on a countries satellites could be catastrophic and many worried that space may become a new theater of war. Large powers have developed various capabilities for destroying satellites Now companies are building advanced service spacecraft that could become weapons. The purpose of these service craft is to repair and move existing satellites but all it takes is a change of intent for these spacecraft to become warcraft. A Chinese space weapon test which destroyed one of its own defunct satellites in 2007 created a great deal of debris that put other satellites in danger. If debris from one act of destruction goes on to destroy further satellites, a chain reaction could then ensue, rendering some orbits unusable. This is known as the Kessler syndrome. Because America's armed forces gain more capability from satellites than any other country, America has the most to lose from war in space. It is planning to increase its capabilities in the area. President Trump wants a new space force. The world will hope for peace in the cosmos but history suggests that such ideals are not easily maintained.

The Trump administration will roll out a new strategy for a more aggressive space-based missile defense system to protect against existing threats from North Korea and Iran and counter advanced weapon systems being developed by Russia and China.

President Donald Trump signed a memo Tuesday directing the Defense Department to reinstate the U.S. Space Command.
