Arming the Heavens
Arming the Heavens with Chinese captions
In a rush to seize "the new high ground," the United States is moving forward on plans to place weapons in space. This represents a significant break from the long-standing international policy of restraint toward arming the heavens. This shift has profound strategic, political, and economic implications. The time is now for a vigorous national debate.

Is the weaponization of space inevitable? If so, what will be the consequences? If not, how can "shooter" in space be prevented? Arming the Heavens explores the range of visions from those who seek to preserve space as a "weapons-free zone" to those who would make the U.S. military commander-in-chief of the cosmos.
