As space becomes more crowded with over 12,000 active satellites operated by over sixty countries and hundreds of private companies, preventing conflict in this strategic environment has become increasingly important. The Politics of Space Security examines the history of the space age from its origins in national rocket programs of the 1920s and 1930s to the present day, focusing in particular on the political, military, and diplomatic challenges affecting space security. James Clay Moltz analyzes the competing demands of national interests in space against the shared interests of all spacefarers in preserving the safe use of space in the face of emerging threats, such as man-made orbital debris.
