Space Shock: 18 Threats That Will Define Space Power

China isn't aiming for the Moon-it is planning for control of space itself. By 2045, Beijing plans to dominate a $10 trillion Cislunar economy, beam power to Earth from orbit, and mine asteroids worth quintillions. Space Shock presents eighteen realistic "Sputnik moment" scenarios-created by the authors and stress-tested through wargames with senior space, defense, and policy experts-to reveal how America might respond. From satellite shootdowns to Lunar land grabs, it exposes critical vulnerabilities and offers the strategic roadmap to ensure the United States, not China, leads humanity's expansion into the final frontier.
