What is the strategic role of uncertainty in safeguarding global security? The militarization of space involves disparate nations and commercial actors, along with pervasive data collection and transformative technology innovation, and it will challenge the traditional theories of arms control but there are throughlines. In this episode, Russell Rumbaugh, Deputy Executive Director of CSPS, invites Dr. Amy J. Nelson to discuss her new book The Arms Control Paradox: Managing Uncertainty in an I...
Commercial space launch and operations involves a lot of data that travels on radiofrequency spectrum and is licensed for use to many actors across launch and operations, including future in-space servicing. As the industry grows, so too must the creativity of regulators to ensure a timely licensing process and no interference between users. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC)’s new Part 100 is just the beginning. In this episode Audrey Allison (CSPS) talks to Arpan Sura, Senior Couns...
A mesh network of data centers in space has the potential to change how data is stored and where data is processed, and many see it as a solution to pressures currently on terrestrial data centers. What are the key bottlenecks? How should we be thinking now to ensure and protect orbital operations into the future? Are there use-cases for national security being explored, such as for missile warning and missile tracking? Hosts Colleen Stover (CSPS) and Ron Birk (Principal Director...
Nuclear technology has been used in the space sector for decades – from generating power on Voyager I since 1977 to the Mars rovers. Commercial space nuclear power and propulsion (NPP) will most likely have a role in future space operations, but nuclear has an image problem that may only be solvable through effective regulation for safety. How do different high and low enriched nuclear materials dictate the licensing and regulation for use in the space sector? What are the current laws for po...
The US Army recently announced a Space Operations Branch, but space is not new to ground-based operations. So what is new?

In this episode, Senior Policy Analyst and former soldier, David Geye (CSPS), talks to US Army’s Col. Joseph Mroszczyk, Director, Transformation Integration ...
Science-fiction as a genre has come to define the modern human experience and our vision of the future. Strategically thinking about conflict in space can be informed by some of the most beloved modern and historic sci-fi stories. Hosted by Colleen Stover, this episode features Dr. Namrata Goswami talking about her novel approach to seeing space strategically through the lens of Dune (1965), The Expanse (TV, 2015), Ender’s Game (1985), Forever War (1974), and Basilisk Station (1993). Future h...

How has the nation’s newest service evolved to meet those challenges? What defines a military service and what makes for a good Guardian? New acquisition models, bigger budgets, and allied partners all play a role in how the Space Force will continue to develop. In September 2026, the Space Force ...
