Counterspace: The Next Hours of World War III

What if North Korea detonates a nuclear weapon in space and silences dozens of satellites? What if an Iranian missile threatens to destroy Israel, while a Venezuelan research satellite endangers one of the US ?s most promising space initiatives? What if tech-savvy terrorist cells unleash back-to-back horrors in California while national leaders, robbed of spy satellite imagery, are forced to make blind decisions? These are the scenarios of Counterspace, a frighteningly plausible look at threats to the United States and the world. The authors use war gaming scenarios to show how the US Strategic Command might use current and near-future technology to prevent global disaster.
