ABSTRACT Space hybrid operations possess considerable residual offensive capabilities for waging space warfare. Adequate utilization of space hybrid operations may surpass the disadvantages of kinetic anti-satellite weapons related to the proliferation of space debris and keep a wide array of impacts with flexible outcomes. Moreover, the significance of space hybrid operations is underlined by the renewed geopolitical competition and rivalry that spills over from the traditional states as key actors of conflict to non-state space actors influenced by international disputes. Non-state actors, especially the commercial sector, are then dragged into the geopolitical conflict with a twofold role since their space assets constitute valuable targets, and given the dual-use nature of space systems, may directly or non-directly support space militarization and even weaponization. As such, state and non-state actors must closely cooperate and create mutually beneficial relations that will ensure the protection of space assets and the building of resilient space infrastructures.
空间混合作战具有相当大的剩余进攻能力来发动太空战。充分利用空间混合作战可以克服动能反卫星武器与空间碎片扩散有关的缺点,并保持广泛的影响和灵活的结果。此外,重新出现的地缘政治竞争和对抗从传统的国家作为冲突的主要行为体蔓延到受国际争端影响的非国家空间行为体,突显了空间混合行动的重要性。非国家行为体,特别是商业部门,因此以双重角色被拖入地缘政治冲突,因为他们的空间资产构成了有价值的目标,并且鉴于空间系统的军民两用性质,可能直接或不直接地支持空间军事化甚至武器化。因此,国家和非国家行为体必须密切合作,建立互利关系,确保保护空间资产和建设具有复原力的空间基础设施。

ABSTRACT From early 1963 to 2022, Indonesian space activities saw numerous breakthroughs in space technologies, law, and policies, but also multiple challenges, the majority of which were caused by internal political issues. Indonesian space operations can be classified into three epochs: (1) the old order, (2) the new order, and (3) the reformation era. Prior to the reformation era, the most stable environment for Indonesian space development since state policy has strengthened national space infrastructure existed. However, following the political turbulence in 1998, Indonesia's space program has been stalled since the start of reformation administrations, indicating that space initiatives are not a priority. Nonetheless, in the 2000s, Indonesia took a significant step by acceding to four of five international space treaties, significantly altering the course of the Indonesian space program. Indonesia has aspired for space technology independence, and to that end, in 2013, it enacted Law No. 21 of 2013, which paved the way for the Indonesian Space Activities Master Plan 2016–2040 for national space development. Although Indonesia has a defined long-term plan for space program development, the government's political and financial inconsistencies remain a significant impediment. This paper explores Indonesia's national space development policy and the prospects for achieving the country's space development goals by 2040.
从1963年初到2022年,印度尼西亚的空间活动在空间技术、法律和政策方面取得了许多突破,但也面临着多重挑战,其中大部分是由内部政治问题引起的。印尼的空间运作可以分为三个时代:(1)旧秩序,(2)新秩序,(3)改革时代。在改革时代之前,印度尼西亚空间发展的最稳定的环境已经存在,因为国家政策加强了国家空间基础设施。然而,在1998年的政治动荡之后,印尼的太空计划自改革政府开始以来一直停滞不前,这表明太空计划不是一个优先事项。尽管如此,在2000年代,印度尼西亚迈出了重要的一步,加入了五项国际空间条约中的四项,极大地改变了印度尼西亚空间计划的进程。印度尼西亚一直渴望实现空间技术独立,为此,2013年颁布了2013年第21号法律,为《2016-2040年印度尼西亚空间活动总体规划》铺平了道路,以促进国家空间发展。尽管印尼有明确的太空项目发展长期计划,但政府在政治和财政上的不一致仍然是一个重大障碍。本文探讨了印度尼西亚的国家空间发展政策以及到2040年实现该国空间发展目标的前景。

Man, State, and War in Space: Neorealism and Russia’s Counterbalancing Strategy Against the United States in Outer Space Security Politics 人、国家和太空战争:新现实主义和俄罗斯在外太空安全政治中对美国的制衡战略

ABSTRACT This paper aspires to contribute to the limited field of neorealist scholarship on security affairs in outer space by conducting a case study of the Russian Federation’s security policy in the celestial sphere. In recent years, Russia has emerged as one of the key players in the international politics of outer space. However, Russia’s strategy of developing its space defense assets, while in parallel launching diplomatic initiatives in international organizations calling for the avoidance of an arms race in outer space, is ambiguous. I argue that the neorealist paradigm elucidates this case by highlighting the intensifying balancing trajectories of contemporary outer space security affairs. In a first step, hypotheses on states’ behavior in the field of outer space armament and arms control are derived from the body of neorealist scholarship on terrestrial international politics. This is followed by hypothesis testing against the case of Russia’s space security politics. It is contended that Russia is engaging in a predominantly competitive endeavor vis-à-vis the United States by utilizing a hybrid approach of internal and external balancing, as well as a pragmatic instrumentalization of international institutions to leverage its own economically disadvantaged position in outer space.
本文希望通过对俄罗斯联邦在太空领域的安全政策进行个案研究,为有限的新现实主义外太空安全事务研究领域做出贡献。近年来,俄罗斯已成为外层空间国际政治的主要参与者之一。然而,俄罗斯发展其太空防御资产的战略,同时在国际组织中发起外交倡议,呼吁避免外层空间的军备竞赛,是模棱两可的。我认为,新现实主义范式通过强调当代外层空间安全事务日益加剧的平衡轨迹来阐明这一情况。第一步,关于国家在外空军备和军备控制领域的行为的假设来自地球上国际政治的新现实主义学术机构。接下来是针对俄罗斯太空安全政治的假设检验。有人认为,俄罗斯正在通过利用内部和外部平衡的混合方法,以及利用国际机构的务实手段,利用自己在外层空间的经济劣势地位,对-à-vis美国进行主要竞争。

ABSTRACT Australia is currently experiencing a reinvigorated space program with a new space agency, significant industry investment in space ventures, and the Australian Defence Force embracing the military advantage conferred by space systems. Coincidentally, geostrategic instability has led Australia’s government to raise its military preparedness in the face of increased risk of state-on-state conflict. Accordingly, military planners are considering not only what future space capabilities are needed by Australia, but the prospect of space warfare and what the state should do to protect its equities in the space domain. We conclude that developing a stronger normative framework is the best option for the preservation and growth of Australia’s future space capabilities.
澳大利亚目前正在经历一个重新焕发活力的空间计划,新成立了一个航天局,对空间企业进行了重大的工业投资,澳大利亚国防军正在拥抱空间系统所赋予的军事优势。巧合的是,地缘战略的不稳定导致澳大利亚政府提高了军事准备,以应对国与国之间冲突的风险增加。因此,军事规划者不仅要考虑澳大利亚未来需要什么样的太空能力,还要考虑太空战的前景以及国家应该如何保护其在太空领域的权益。我们的结论是,制定一个更强有力的规范框架是保持和发展澳大利亚未来空间能力的最佳选择。

ABSTRACT Synthetic biology is a new and promising way of managing challenges which may be faced by astronauts during human space missions. Due to specific constraints, which include long term travel and future settlement where in-situ resources are limited, synthetic biology provides a rational solution. In this paper, we start from an evaluation of ethics of synthetic biology, and propose application of a systematic consequentialist approach for deployment. We discuss possible applications of synthetic biology in resource utilization and life support, which have direct applications to sustaining human-kind both on Earth and in space.
合成生物学是一种新的、有前途的方法来管理宇航员在人类太空任务中可能面临的挑战。由于特定的限制,包括长期旅行和未来定居,就地资源有限,合成生物学提供了一个合理的解决方案。本文从对合成生物学伦理的评价出发,提出应用系统的结果主义方法进行部署。我们讨论了合成生物学在资源利用和生命维持方面的可能应用,这对维持地球和空间上的人类都有直接的应用。

Characteristics of Governance for Domains beyond National Jurisdiction: Lessons for Future Outer Space Governance 国家管辖范围以外领域治理的特点:对未来外层空间治理的启示
Q3 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-09-02 DOI: 10.1080/14777622.2022.2145190

ABSTRACT Outer space is a domain beyond national jurisdiction where the governance regime is generally permissive. However, as actors and activities increase, additional governance is required. Other domains beyond national jurisdiction already benefit from functioning governance structures that have enabled activities to be conducted in an orderly, peaceful, and equitable manner. Although, as a physical domain, space is unique, the actors and interests are not. The actors are states and private entities. The interests are economic gain, safety and sustainability, national security, and international relations. Governance regimes for international civil aviation, telecommunications, and commercial shipping share common characteristics essential to achieving the consent and cooperation of states. Since the actors in the outer space domain are also states and private entities, and their interests are similar to those which they, by their very nature, pursue in other domains, the common characteristics shared among actors can guide the quest for future governance regimes of outer space.
外空是国家管辖范围以外的领域,治理机制一般是宽松的。然而,随着参与者和活动的增加,需要额外的治理。国家管辖范围以外的其他领域已经受益于有效的治理结构,这些结构使活动能够以有序、和平和公平的方式进行。虽然,作为一个物理领域,空间是独一无二的,但行动者和利益却不是。参与者是国家和私人实体。这些利益包括经济收益、安全和可持续性、国家安全和国际关系。国际民用航空、电信和商业航运的治理机制具有共同的特点,这对取得各国的同意和合作至关重要。由于外层空间领域的行为体也是国家和私营实体,它们的利益与它们在其他领域追求的利益就其性质而言是相似的,因此,行为体之间的共同特征可以指导对未来外层空间治理机制的探索。

ABSTRACT After 50 years, the Moon is becoming a center of attention in the geopolitical competition among space powers. The planned lunar settlements to take place starting in 2025, or soon thereafter, will hold geopolitical considerations and impacts. This paper highlights and summarizes factors that will affect the process of lunar settlement in the context of the importance of lunar poles. The poles include the location of key resources – permanent sunlight for power generation and water – for the state actors involved in the settlement projects. Access to these resources will influence relations among the actors. The paper points to the need to participate in the lunar settlement process for state actors not to be left behind or in a disadvantaged position for access to key resources. Further discussed is the geopolitical context concerning settlement of the geographically advantageous polar regions, primarily the south lunar pole. If this is undertaken by adversarial states, a space power, dependent on the outcome of that competition, would be limited in its own efforts to develop an independent settlement.
经过50年的发展,月球正在成为太空大国地缘政治竞争的焦点。计划于2025年或之后不久开始的月球定居点将具有地缘政治方面的考虑和影响。本文从月球两极的重要性出发,重点总结了影响月球定居进程的因素。这些杆子包括关键资源的位置——用于发电的永久阳光和水——供参与定居项目的国家行动者使用。获得这些资源将影响行动者之间的关系。该文件指出,有必要参与月球定居过程,以使国家行为体在获得关键资源方面不被落在后面或处于不利地位。进一步讨论了地理上有利的极地地区(主要是月球南极)定居的地缘政治背景。如果这是由敌对国家进行的,那么一个依赖于这种竞争结果的太空大国自己发展独立解决方案的努力将受到限制。

To Rule the Cosmic Waves: Maritime School of Thought and Space Strategy 统治宇宙浪潮:海洋思想学派与空间战略

ABSTRACT A wide range of states support national space agencies. The United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, France, and Australia are developing, or have developed, distinct space divisions within their military. The world is increasingly reliant on the sea for trade and prosperity, but the future will likely shift focus to space with an increasing dependence on space-based technology for a wide range of functions on Earth. Space requires a tailored strategy for states wishing to maintain security beyond the atmosphere and in its links to Earth. The maritime school of thought offers valuable insights for such a strategy. Sea control and denial are important tenets of maritime strategy and are important in space. States wishing to freely navigate, trade, and project power require control over space and the lines of communication upon common routes and orbital domains. Denial of access to key infrastructure, disabling space assets, and interfering with information exchange are an important feature of strategy. Control and denial can be accomplished with a focus on strategic geography around launch sites, and access to orbital domains and lines of communication.
许多国家支持国家空间机构。美国、英国、加拿大、日本、法国和澳大利亚正在发展或已经发展了各自的军事空间部门。世界在贸易和繁荣方面越来越依赖海洋,但未来的重点可能会转移到太空,越来越依赖天基技术来实现地球上的各种功能。希望在大气层之外及其与地球的联系中维持安全的国家需要制定有针对性的空间战略。海事学派的思想为这种战略提供了宝贵的见解。海上控制和拒止是海洋战略的重要原则,在太空中也很重要。希望自由航行、贸易和投射力量的国家需要控制空间以及共同航线和轨道域上的通信线路。拒绝进入关键基础设施、使空间资产失效和干扰信息交换是战略的一个重要特征。控制和拒止可以通过关注发射场周围的战略地理,以及进入轨道域和通信线路来实现。

ABSTRACT The United States, Russia, China, and India are the only states that have tested anti-satellite weapons (ASATs) by deliberately destroying orbiting satellites. In this paper, a mix of practical and aspirational factors are investigated in the context of heightened propensity for a state's testing of ASATs. The strategic competition and rivalry between these global and regional space powers generates an environment of conflict and insecurity. In the absence of an international treaty to constrain behavior, these states are driven to amass counterspace capabilities to secure their assets and establish space dominance.
美国、俄罗斯、中国和印度是仅有的几个通过故意摧毁轨道卫星来测试反卫星武器(ASATs)的国家。在本文中,混合的实际和期望的因素进行了调查,在一个国家的asat测试的倾向升高的背景下。这些全球和区域空间大国之间的战略竞争和对抗产生了冲突和不安全的环境。在缺乏约束行为的国际条约的情况下,这些国家被迫积累反太空能力,以保护其资产并建立太空主导地位。

ABSTRACT Space is an area characterized by geopolitical positioning the past seven decades. Over that time, agencies and institutions have developed, charged with the task of ensuring the safe usage and exploration of orbits. In the United States, NASA is synonymous with space travel, and in Europe there is the European Space Agency in conjunction with the European Union and state actors all funded at a lower level than NASA and charged with fewer responsibilities. In this paper, we ask why these institutions developed in such different ways and to such different extents? Using the concept of historical institutionalism, we examine the history of each and discuss the path-dependent nature of the institutions in question. Broadening the discussion, we note that while institutional formation engenders a profound impact on the current activity of each agency, geopolitical factors cannot be disregarded, and power structures within the global system are of a greater impact than historical institutionalism.
空间是一个以地缘政治定位为特征的领域。在此期间,各机构和机构发展起来,承担着确保轨道安全使用和探索的任务。在美国,美国宇航局是太空旅行的代名词,在欧洲,欧洲航天局与欧盟和国家行为体合作,所有这些行为体的供资水平都低于美国宇航局,承担的责任也更少。在本文中,我们要问为什么这些制度的发展方式和程度如此不同?利用历史制度主义的概念,我们考察了每个制度的历史,并讨论了相关制度的路径依赖性质。扩大讨论范围,我们注意到,虽然制度形成对每个机构的当前活动产生了深远的影响,但地缘政治因素不容忽视,全球体系内的权力结构比历史制度主义具有更大的影响。
