LTWRC Nuclear Weapons and International Law Series: Countering Space-Based Weapons of Mass Destruction
Editors’ note: We are pleased to partner with the Law, Technology, and Warfare Research Cell (LTWRC) at the U.S. Air Force Academy to publish links to recordings of their law of war-relevant videos, webinars, and podcasts. Readers can explore our LTWRC links here, where different subjects of the recordings, including cyber law, space law, nuclear weapons, and emerging technologies are brought together.
Major Brian Green of the U.S. Space Force’s Space Training and Readiness Command (STARCOM) explores in this webinar the reasons why a state might seek to station a nuclear weapon in outer space, why a state might refrain from doing so, and details a range of legal response options for the United States and the rest of the world to consider.
The webinar is available here.
