"Klein argues that hostile actions on orbit normally fall outside the definition of armed conflict, with actions short of overt war as the norm for adversaries seeking to disrupt our ability to engage in this domain." #elaranova #SpaceForce #USSF #spaceindustry #nationalsecurityspace #nationalsecurity #nationaldefense #spacewarfare #irregularwarfare #internationalspace #commercialspace #militaryspace

Wondering about ITAR? It's not a space mission, but it's just as vital! ITAR stands for International Traffic in Arms Regulations, safeguarding defense technology from reaching the wrong hands. Think of it as NASA for defense tech, protecting Earth's secrets from space invaders! #ITAR #Defense #ExportControls

Space Data Association announces EU SST Space Surveillance and Tracking winner of T.S. Kelso Award The European Union Space Surveillance and Tracking Partnership (EU SST) has been announced as the recipient of the Space Data Association’s T.S. Kelso Award, presented in recognition of outstanding contributions to space flight safety. The EU SST Partnership relies on the SSA capabilities of 15 Member States1 of the European Union to provide space safety services, with the EU Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) acting as Front Desk. In particular, 57 organisations are registered to the Collision Avoidance service, through which EU SST protects more than 400 satellites in all orbit regimes (LEO, MEO, GEO) and of various origins (civil, commercial, military). #space #EU #award #surveillance #SST #flightsafety #EUSPA #euspace https://lnkd.in/eM478RKX

Great Step ahead Boom Supersonic! Reaction Engines has emerged as a frontrunner in the burgeoning field of hypersonic technology. Their emphasis on advancing hypersonic engines reflects a strategic focus on achieving even greater speeds in travel. Through their dedicated HVX program, Reaction Engines is actively pursuing innovative solutions for both defense and commercial applications. While the prospect of widespread hypersonic travel remains speculative, Reaction Engines stands out as a leading contender in this realm. #aviation #aviationindustry #futureofaviation

Space Debris Alert: Fragments from Inactive Russian Satellite RESURS P1 A significant #spacedebris event has been detected by LeoLabs, originating from the inactive Russian satellite RESURS P1 (SATNO 39186, Int Des 2013-030A). Between 2024-06-26 T13:05 UTC and 2024-06-27 T00:51 UTC, "a number of fragments were released." Additionally, the 18th Space Defense Squadron (18 SDS) has also confirmed the breakup of RESURS P1 (#39186, 2013-030A), likely occurring on June 26, 2024, between 1512-1640 UTC. As of June 26, 18 SDS is tracking over 100 associated pieces at an estimated 350 km altitude. These fragments are now part of routine conjunction assessments to ensure spaceflight safety. Analysis is ongoing. #SpaceSafety #OrbitalDebris #SpaceSustainability #LeoLabs #SatelliteMonitoring #SpaceNews #18SDS

Introductory Video: The Mechanics of Spaceborne Warfare Series This introductory video aims to introduce my latest work to you. I present the series titled "The Mechanics of Spaceborne Warfare," in which I have pioneered concepts aimed at revolutionizing the way we conduct spaceborne missions. I developed these papers with one objective in mind: to ensure that the United States can achieve nothing short of "Absolute Superiority" in the final frontier. These papers are: Paper 1: Exploring Anti-Satellite Operations Paper 2: Redefining Orbital Suppression Dynamics Paper 3: Integrating Stealth Technology in Orbital Assets My work sets a new standard for spaceborne warfare, pioneering modern and practical concepts while offering fresh, actionable insights for the United States' armed forces and its other components. These papers provide well-structured, forward-looking frameworks that will significantly influence future developments in spaceborne warfare and defense technology. 🔔 You can download these papers: The Mechanics of Spaceborne Warfare: Exploring Anti-Satellite Operations Link: [ https://lnkd.in/gu_J4aH7 ] The Mechanics of Spaceborne Warfare: Redefining Orbital Suppression Dynamics Link: [ https://lnkd.in/gNKgegxt ] The Mechanics of Spaceborne Warfare: Integrating Stealth Technology in Orbital Assets Link: [ https://lnkd.in/dzwiwXA3 ] #Aerospace #Space #Stealth #Satellite #Defense #Warfare #SpaceborneWarfare #SpaceInnovation #MilitaryStrategy #TechInnovation #NationalSecurity #SpaceTechnology #ASAT #OrbitalSuppression #FutureWarfare #SpaceDefense #StrategicAdvantage #InnovationInSpace #AdvancedWarfare #SpaceMissions
