The Future of Space: The Next Strategic Frontier
The Eisenhower Institute's Future of Space project is engaged in a study to produce a politically viable and technically feasible set of rules defining a security regime for the future use of space. Our approach is based on a vision that integrates the interests of all space stakeholders-military and civilian, domestic and international-within a new security framework that underscores the principle of space as an international resource that can and should be used by the countries of the world for economic and scientific development. At the same time, this regime will have measures in place that can keep proliferation in check and avoid the necessity to use weapons in space to protect national assets, making even weapons of deterrence, which could ignite an arms race, unnecessary.
