Multinational Experiment 7: A Process for Deterring and Influencing Actors in Space, v1.01

Abstract

Space provides critical and unique capabilities that increase the effectiveness of terrestrial warfighters, via accurate timing and navigational data, command and control capabilities, imagery and weather information. Our dependency on Space makes this domain an attractive target to our adversaries to negate our supremacy in other domains, and since Space is not owned by anyone it can be exploited by everyone. Furthermore, the capability to enter space or to restrict or deny access to it is no longer limited to global powers. Multinational Experiment 7 Outcome 2 is segmented into three Objectives. The second Objective identifies mechanisms to influence actors who may threaten our access or use of space. This document identifies how to manage the behaviour of actors who threaten access or use of space. The document outlines the basic concepts and terms in use (Section 3), the assumptions and scope of this document (Section 4) and provides a simple process for deterring and influencing in space (Part I).
