May 21 Wednesday
10:00-11:00 International Agreements on Space during the Cold War
(The international agreements governing space were developed in the context of the cold war. I will list the relevant treaties and agreements and then discuss how they affect free use of space, peaceful purposes, right of self-defense, prohibitions on nuclear weapons and testing, etc.)
11:00-11:15: Break
11:15-12:30: Satellites and their Orbits
(Many historians and government policy-makers do not understand how space is actually used for communications and military/intelligence purposes. This lecture will be a short non-technical tutorial showing how different orbits constrain the use of space for national security purposes.)
May 29 Thursday
8:30-9:30: US Space Policies
(The US government creates national policy documents which control the management of important space-related areas such as the creation of NASA, commercial remote sensing, global positioning system, and national space. This lecture will briefly discuss this process and highlight a few US policy documents of interest that relate to national security space.）
9:30-9:45: Break
9:45-11:00: History of US National Security Space
(Given the enormous size and importance of the US national security space effort, the many different organizations and projects involved can be confusing. I will provide a brief chronological overview beginning with the immediate post-World War II competition between the US and the USSR to capture the Nazi space engineers, National Security Act of 1947, early US space and high altitude aircraft programs, the impact of Sputnik, and the development of modern US national security space organizations. ）
