We are on the verge of completely conquering gravity. A major breakthrough in research and science: Installing a combat orbital grazer will allow instant destruction of ground-based launch systems." The creation of a combat grazer - a quantum generator of gravitational waves - has been established and proved real. According to the theory of Superunification, a quanton is an electromagnetic four-dimensional particle - a carrier of time and space at the same time. It is also a carrier of super strong electromagnetic interaction (SSEI) - the fifth fundamental force (Superpower). How to use a quanton to create a battle grazer. - And how do you release electromagnetic energy from mass? - Only through gravity, that is, through the mass defect. Gravitational radiation is all-penetrating and is not absorbed in the atmosphere. In the future, the grazer will displace small arms, artillery and missiles, depending on the grazer's power. The future is in our hands.

Excerpt: 1. The tensions of the Cold War provided additional impetus for the conclusion of the  Outer Space Treaty (OST) of 1967, with a core aim of preventing an arms race in outer space. Despite placing some restrictions on the weaponisation of outer space, the OST does not prohibit all military activities utilising space. 2. Article IV of the OST prohibits the placement of nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction in Earth’s orbit. However, direct ascent ASAT (D-ASAT) weapons and many types of cyber-attack will not fall within the ambit of this prohibition. 3.The due regard principle contained in Article IX of the OST may be breached by States that conduct ASAT weapons tests which cause harmful interference to the activities of other States. However, it is generally regarded as being toothless, and exists primarily as a consultation requirement. It has not been invoked, in practice, by States as a means of limiting harmful activities by others in the space domain. https://lnkd.in/d8nwfB9B

Good overview of the hard questions about how best to match the political desires for missile warning/defense with operational and fiscal reality

North Korea 🇰🇵 Considers Any Interference with its Satellite Operations a Declaration of War. Pyongyang would respond to any American interference in space by eliminating the viability of US spy satellites, state media KCNA reported, citing a statement from North Korea’s defense ministry spox. The world acknowledged that North Korea's ballistic missile technology has advanced significantly in recent years, and it is probable that they have acquired anti-satellite (ASAT) capabilities. However, I would say no conclusive proof exists that North Korea has successfully tested or deployed ASAT weaponry. Even if North Korea has ASAT capabilities, it is unclear if they can properly target and destroy American satellites. American satellites are often positioned in high orbits, making intercepting them technically difficult. But considering their improvements and determination, North Korea could pose a threat to American satellites in the future, reason they can’t be underestimated 😊 #koreanculture #northkorea #satellites #geopolitics

Things are moving and shaking with the FORGE ground system for SBIRS and Next-Gen OPIR missile warning sats: some good (this); some not so good (delays, restructures). https://lnkd.in/gYYhaESy

there is perhaps a necessity for a revision of the 1967 #OuterSpaceTreaty to include specific provisions banning this type of military activities in the outer space and thus avoid its militarization... So far the mentioned treaty includes the following provisions: Article IV - States Parties to the Treaty undertake not to place in orbit around the Earth any objects carrying nuclear weapons or any other kinds of weapons of mass destruction, install such weapons on celestial bodies, or station such weapons in outer space in any other manner. The Moon and other celestial bodies shall be used by all States Parties to the Treaty exclusively for peaceful purposes. The establishment of military bases, installations and fortifications, the testing of any type of weapons and the conduct of military manoeuvres on celestial bodies shall be forbidden ...  Article IX - In the exploration and use of outer space, including the Moon and other celestial bodies, States Parties to the Treaty shall be guided by the principle of cooperation and mutual assistance and shall conduct all their activities in outer space...with due regard to the corresponding interests of all other States Parties to the Treaty ... https://lnkd.in/eaFHr8DR

Russia warns of potential military action against SpaceX satellites, labeling them “legitimate targets” for intelligence efforts. This follows reports of SpaceX’s contract with a US intelligence agency to launch spy satellites. The move underscores SpaceX’s deepening ties with the US military and the Pentagon’s reliance on private sector partnerships for space dominance. Concerns mount over the consequences of space warfare, with warnings of catastrophic effects on global satellite networks. SpaceX’s role in geopolitical tensions, including in Ukraine, adds complexity to the situation. #russia #UnitedStates #RussiaUkraine #spacex #businessdor
