The book examines the space ambitions of China, the United States, and India. It analyzes how unique strategic cultures have shaped elite discourse, legal policy, and space programs within these states.
With a focus on China, the United States, and India, this book examines the economic ambitions of the second space race. The authors argue that space ambitions are informed by a combination of factors, including available resources, capability, elite preferences, and talent pool. The authors demonstrate how these influences affect the development of national space programs as well as policy and law.
