Zusammenfassung:"Joan Johnson-Freese argues that the race for space weapons and the U.S. quest for exclusive or at least dominant ownership of strategic space assets have alienated the very allies that the United States needs in order to maintain its leading role in space exploration. Taking a balanced look at the issues that have contributed to the decline of America's manned space program, such as the lack of political support and funding, Johnson-Freese offers not only a critique but also a plan for enhancing U.S. space security through cooperation rather than competition." "Space as a Strategic Asset underscores the danger of allowing our space program to languish and the importance of cooperation in protecting the security of our country and the world."--BOOK JACKET.
