A Mission to Protect and Defend Assets in Space:
Space is no longer a peaceful domain, but instead a region increasingly contested both kinetically and non-kinetically by U.S. adversaries. As in any other domain, it is not sovereign, and forces must be able to protect U.S. freedom of action. This demands that the U.S. national security space community, particularly Space Command and the Space Force, consider new strategies, operational concepts, and associated technologies that will ensure desired effects can be secured in the face of hostile adversary action on orbit. This panel should consider discussing concepts that will be highlighted in response to the FY23 NDAA language requiring an unclassified study on this subject.
