If all fails, countries could even resort to nuclear weapons in space. The 4th EWS, assigned to Delta 3, trains, equips and mobilizes to employ space electromagnetic warfare capabilities. India most recently performed such a feat back in March. Less than a month until classes start for 23A Special Warfare Cyber and Non-Kinetic Effects (SWNKE) and 23A Special Warfare Space Integration Course. World powers could also use kinetic energy projectiles to blow up enemy satellites. Countries including France and Russia are already developing technologies that could soon move their satellites into defensive and even offensive positions. and NATO space architecture will not be from kinetic weapons, but from cyber operators on the other side of the world. All other proposed weapons suffer from serious problems which render them ineffective compared to lasers and kinetics. Military powers, according to the essay, are likely to use energy weapons that are capable of disabling, radio jamming, or even destroying other countries' satellites. Lasers and kinetics are standard reference weapons, and for good reason. "That said, attacks could still affect our lives on Earth, disturbing GPS, television services and even cash withdrawals." Orbital Chaos
"Any observers on the surface would be unlikely to directly see any effects from space warfare, unless a kinetic kill actually breaks a spacecraft up - with debris lighting up as it re-enters the atmosphere," wrote University of Birmingham researcher Gareth Dorrian and Nottingham Trent University physicist Ian Whittaker. Ready to turn Earth's orbit into an absolute hellscape? Space WarsĪ future space war won't look like "Star Wars." Instead, according to a new essay in The Conversation by a pair of British physics and space researchers, it'll be almost imperceptible on the planet's surface - yet potentially deadly to Earth-based infrastructure.
