Episode Synopsis

Space is no longer “just” about satellites beaming weather pics or GPS timing. It’s a contested, surveilled battlespace where autonomous constellations, on‑orbit proximity ops, and dual‑use cyber/EW/kinetic tools shape deterrence, crisis stability, and escalation pathways. The same AI that optimizes space traffic can cue counterspace missions; the same cameras that map crops can quietly stalk satellites; and a glitch in orbit can ripple straight into nuclear C3 timelines. Policymakers need to build redundancy, attribution, and norms into orbital ops—before ambiguity becomes the spark.www.thesecuritynexus.net
