Description
Space security is an increasingly important issue, and one that
has taken on new meaning in recent years with increased concerns
about protecting space capabilities from both intentional and
environmental threats.
On April 14, 2016, the Secure World Foundation hosted an
invite-only luncheon panel discussion at the Broadmoor Hotel in
Colorado Springs, Colorado, as part of the 32nd Annual Space
Symposium, to discuss the current state of space security using the
lens of existing norms of behavior, concerns about the resiliency
of space assets, and changing attitudes about space
protection.
