Scenario # 1
• Nation X covertly rolls out mobile TEL w/ booster• US not postured due to lack of I&W
• First warning: DSP satellites• What is it? Where is it going?
• Further tracking: space launch• Is it a threat to US/Allied spacecraft?
• Booster burnout, tracking ends
• No radar coverage, so how do we proceed?
• Phone conversations to verify health of assets
UNCLASSIFIED 5
Scenario # 2
• High value US LEO spacecraft suddenly stops transmitting
• Telemetry indicates quick rise in temp just prior
• Further analysis: spacecraft was over Nation Y laser research facility at time of failure
• Challenge: Anomaly or laser attack? Accident?
UNCLASSIFIED 6
Scenario # 3
• US satellite in HEO is a “no-show” at scheduled tracking time
• Over open ocean after last SSN track
• Multiple pieces later tracked
• Questions: Explosion? Attack? Debris?

“Traffic Management” Example
Routine orbital conjunction screening revealed possible conjunction between an active US Weather Satellite and a piece of debris of unknown origin
Close conjunction predicted for 7 Aug 08
– 42 meter predicted miss distance
– Approx 14,400 MPH closing velocity of the approach
– Satellite did not have capability to perform collision avoidance maneuvers
Post-event analysis shows final miss distance at time of closest approach only 67 meters
UNCLASSIFIED 9
Space utilization is growing, increasing exposure to hazards within the medium, while technology drives the threat– Access to space is cheaper & more widely available
– Space is more crowded than ever (18,000+ man-made objects, including debris)
– Improved & smaller spacecraft technologies provide challenges
– Jamming, attacks on ground sites, ASATs, High Energy Lasers, NUDETs
Need for Protection (Dependence and Risk Vulnerability)
“United States national security is critically dependent on space capabilities, and this dependence will grow.” National Space Policy, 2006
Protection is about Preservation—requires Recognition & Attribution– Must be able to say an event “will, is or has” & answer “who, what (threat or
hazard), why, how, when & where”
– Early recognition allows preservation—attribution enables response
