Assessing Threats to Space Systems
When: Tuesday, June 5, 2018
Time: 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
Where: CSIS, 1616 Rhode Island Ave NW, Washington, DC
Space is simultaneously a powerful enabler for the United States and a critical vulnerability. U.S. national security space systems are vulnerable to a wide range of threats, ranging from cyberattacks and jamming to direct-ascent anti-satellite (ASAT) missiles. CSIS’ Space Threat Assessment 2018 and the Secure World Foundation's Global Counterspace Capabilities provide assessments of the open-source information available on the counterspace capabilities that can threaten space systems.
This joint CSIS and SWF event was made possible by general support to CSIS, and will feature a panel discussion among the authors of both reports.
