SUMMARY:Keep Space for Peace Week - The Dangers of Crowded Orbits
DESCRIPTION:Lower Earth orbit (LEO) is becoming dangerously crowded and NASA scientists fear growing space debris and likely cascading collisions in orbit. This\, called the Kessler Syndrome\, would endanger space activities and the use of satellites which so much technology relies on to function.\nThe Global Network is involved in a legal action to pressure the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to follow the law and conduct environmental impact studies before approving the launching of satellites into space. In 1985-88 there were about 5000-6000 objects in orbit. Currently there are roughly 27\,000 human-made objects in space\nElon Musk’s Space X has launched 12\,000 satellites and various companies are now planning some 71\,000 more. The US is moving quickly to grab as many remaining LEO parking spaces as possible\, thereby preventing other nations from deploying satellites.\nCould the FCC be ignoring the law for monitoring environmental impacts because Congress and the Pentagon want to remove all impediments to US military domination of LEO?\nThe emblem of the Space Force\, Semper Supra\, Latin for always above\, shows

SUMMARY:Crowded space: why the increasing militarisation of space could risk nuclear war
DESCRIPTION:The increasing militarisation of space is contributing to a wider problem: it’s becoming dangerously crowded. Currently there are 27\,000 human-made objects floating in space\, and there are plans for this number to increase sharply. Billions of pounds are being spent by multiple countries – including the UK – on militarising space. This includes satellites\, ground-based stations and new technologies such as armed drones\, controlled through satellites. Not surprisingly\, a crowded space has major implications for security\, including increasing the risk of nuclear war. Find out more in this webinar. \nChaired by Kate Hudson (General Secretary\, CND) with speakers: Mélusine Lebert\, Dave Webb and Bruce Gagnon + Q&A \nMore details: here
