PANEL:  Space Security is Your Problem, Too
Channel: Secure World Foundation
Date: 2023-06-16

Discussions of responsible behavior and space threats have traditionally been dominated by the major space powers and perceived as something that the commercial sector need not weigh in on.  However, given that space is a shared domain, everyone - space actors and non-space actors alike, governments, industry, and civil society - has a role to play in ensuring the predictability, stability, and security of the space environment. This session discussed why space security is relevant to all institutions and how non-traditional space powers and the commercial sector may play a role in shoring up space security for all.
