Next Major War in Space?
An anonymous reader writes "A US Northern Command general thinks that with US and international military dependence on space assets (such as GPS, eyes in the sky, communications), the next major conflict will occur in the heavens. He acknowledged that the US wants to keep space peaceful, but that can't last forever, and potential threats might not care, anyway. Yes, China's recent success (or what we heard from the military secrecy) relates to this, but he also said he's not implying China is a threat, or will be."
We only go to war with people that are lucky even to have running water and electricity -- let alone space programs.
It's a hard sell the the American public to go to ware with an even foe. To much at risk in lost numbers on our side.
