Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6911621
Although the Strategic Defense Initiative currently dominates the military space issue scene, the development of an anti-satellite (ASAT) program is another critical issue that must be reckoned with. This study addresses several of the outstanding questions, issues, and concerns about ASAT, including its rationality, military essentiality, impact on arms-control pursuits, and relationship with Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) initiatives. The purpose is to highlight the diversity and significance of the issues and opinions, and demonstrate the need for immediate and serious discussion and resolution.
