What’s New: Secure World Foundation’s annual report on global counterspace capabilities.

Why It’s Important: We have put a lot of really important things in space. It is essential we understand the threats to them.

What Else to Know:

  • The U.S. has far more satellites and is far more dependent on space than any other nations.
  • Threats to space, therefore, are threats to the U.S.
  • There are non-hostile threats to assets in space also. Things like severe solar weather, debris, and accidents.
  • When we first started putting things in space they were in “a safe place” far from hostilities. The hostilities have now caught up.

What Can YOU Do? How Can YOU Help?

PNT is the quiet backbone of everything but too many leaders still don’t see the risk.

But you do. You understand the systems, the dependencies, the failure chains. That insight is rare — and it’s exactly what your country needs right now. Contact your government leaders and industry decision-makers and tell them resilient PNT isn’t a feature — it’s the foundation everything else depends on.
