The emergence of the rockets during the Cold War provided the
United States and the Soviet Union the ability to spy on each other
from space and led to the ballistic missile. The Cold War was the
focus of the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations, and it was
this war that drove initial U.S. space policy and strategy. The
utilization of space quickly expanded beyond the Cold War
protagonists, and unfortunately the domestic and international
framework for developing space policy did not keep up with the
world's utilization of the space domain. From its inception, U.S.
strategy for developing space policy lacked foresight. When it came
to developing space policy, every administration seemed to start
anew. This lack of foresight resulted in short term fixes leading
to long term problems like excessive space debris. The
international community also has challenges. With the number of
countries, consortiums and companies with satellites on orbit, the
international community's governing body for space law and treaties
is the United Nations (U.N.). Unfortunately, the U.N. does not have
the authority, expertise or structure to create and execute
effective space laws and treaties.
