Summary/Abstract |
Space capabilities are important for national growth and well-being. They impact civil development and national security in equal measure. At the same time, space capabilities are costly assets with many applications and are in great demand. The need for optimal and balanced exploitation of resources demands a practical space policy that serves to fulfill the demands of most stakeholders and is in line with global trends. In the case of large countries like India, with an equally large population of over 1.28 billion, the complexities are varied and manifold, as are the challenges and opportunities. India’s national space policy, at present, is limited in scope with a focus on communication and remote sensing satellites. As India’s space capabilities and competencies grow, the need for a broader national space policy rises. India is cognizant of this, and this article discusses the various challenges in the formulation of a comprehensive national space policy for India.

Summary/Abstract |
Space warfare will be an integrated part of battle planning by the
Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) in any future conflict. One
of the major proponents of integrated space power for the PLA, Maj
Gen Cai Fengzhen, believes that control of portions of outer space is
a natural extension of other forms of territorial control, such as sea
or air control. China's contemplation of the military use of space has
focussed on two broad areas, namely, how to use space in military
operations to increase its offensive capability, and how to use space
in military operations to deny space capabilities to adversaries

Summary/Abstract |
China has developed space capabilities with astonishing speed and scope, inviting both admiration and concern. China’s space development spans scientific exploration, business applications, and humanitarian, military, and diplomatic purposes. The existing studies on China’s space capabilities tend to focus on just one of these areas and do not provide a comprehensive understanding of how and why China has been determined in its pursuit of space. This study addresses China’s motivation by analyzing Chinese official documents and other supporting documents and information. At its crux, this study argues that China is driven to develop its space capabilities because they support the Chinese Communist Party’s longevity in power by strengthening its legitimacy to rule the nation.

Summary/Abstract |
The United States (U.S.) has deepening dependence on space systems for economic prosperity, civil government administration, priority science and exploration programs, and national security while at the same time there is dramatic growth in competitive space capabilities and demonstrated threats to space systems globally. Despite this, the U.S. has not invested sufficient resources to meet National policy direction for capabilities to insure freedom of action in space, especially space situational awareness capabilities - the cornerstone of deterrence from space attacks. A principle reason for this shortfall is the historical absence of an organization accountable for securing the space domain like those of land, sea, and air. Using the analogy of the Army Air Corps, the author recommends creation of an autonomous Space Corps realized out of existing organizations within the USAF. The AF Space Corps would manage a separate space budget and all space professionals in organizing, training, and equipping national security space capabilities including those necessary to secure the space domain for peaceful use

Summary/Abstract |
The world has been utterly transformed by space technology and space systems. In the 21st century, we rely on the incredible capabilities they provide us for tasks from the most mundane to the most profound. Every moment of every day, even though we are unaware of its presence, we are engulfed in an invisible digital torrent that streams in two directions, from space to Earth and back again. This ever-present inundation links us to the satellites that serve us, connecting our world in a way that defies imagination. But our nation is not guided by a grand, overarching space strategy. This paper outlines the reason such a strategy is mandatory, the obstacles we must overcome, and the factors we must include in our strategy.
