Abstract

Abstract : Since the 1950s, there have been discussions concerning the need to develop a space power theory. In their attempts to formulate such a theory, strategists have noted the similarities of space operations to those of air and naval operations. Consequently, many have attempted to derive a clearly articulated, all-encompassing space theory through analogy and comparison to either airpower or sea-control models. These efforts, however, as observers like the contemporary historian and strategist Colin Gray have noted, have not produced a theory addressing space operations and associated national resources and military force will be applied poorly or even counter productively.
