Opportunity or Threat to Security ?

چکیده
Between February 20 and 27, 2003, under the code name ‘Schriever II’, friendly ‘blue’ forces faced ‘red’ enemy forces during 8 days of a fierce battle in outer space. More than 300 military and civilian experts from more than 30 US agencies participated in this space war that took place 14 years in the future. Schriever II was only a war game, set in the year 2017! It took place at Schriever Air Force base, Colorado, under the supervision of General Lance Lord, commander of Air Force Space Command and was intended to explore 'critical space issues and the integration of space into the joint fight’. The objectives of the war game focused on examining space capabilities and laws, policies and strategies, not only those available now, but also those anticipated. The insights gathered from the war game will be used to design future acquisition policies. The concept was similar to Schriever 2001, the first war game to test space systems' vulnerabilities.
