2022 Challenges to Security in Space: Space Reliance in an Era of Competition and Expansion

Abstract

Challenges to Security in Space was first published in early 2019 to address the main threats to the array ofU.S. space capabilities, and examine space and counterspace strategies and systems pursued primarily by China and Russia and, to a lesser extent, by North Korea and Iran. This second edition builds on that work and provides an updated, unclassified overview of the threats to U.S. space capabilities, particularly from China and Russia, as those threats continue to expand.
