Cost of Space Weapon Programs not worth Improvements in Security (3349)

A careful examination of space-based weapon programs (including space-based missile defense, anti-satellite weapons, and space-based strike) shows that effective coverage would require a vast constellation of expensive, vulnerable, and easily defeated space weapons. The total cost of ownership (including the necessary infrastructure) is not justified by the potential contributions of space weapons to national security.
