Employment of Space technologies for advancing the nation's social,
scientific and economic interests in gaining increasing importance
in the 21st century. At the same time Space security, which
includes the security of Space assets and the ability to use Space
for civilian and security purpose, is also attracting increasing
attention. During the last few decades the number of states
investing in satellite technologies has grown. Today, satellite
technology is providing a wide array of services from mobile
telephony to global navigation to disaster management. The Armed
Forces in various parts of the world have also begun to rely
increasingly on Space technologies. Particularly the 1991 Gulf War
and subsequent military campaigns in various parts of the world
have demonstrated the significance of Space technologies for
militaries. With the growing reliance of Armed Forces on Space
technology, the concern about security of Space assets is
increasing. These concerns have been further fuelled by the
anti-satellite (ASAT) test undertaken by China in 2007. As a
Space-faring nation it is important for India to constantly monitor
the rapidly changing global Space order. This book is an attempt to
analyse the ongoing trends in the Space domain and emphasis the
need for India to establish a comprehensive Space strategy.
