The Implications of Anti-Satellite Weaponry and the Threat of Space Debris

TLDRThe use of anti-satellite weaponry in recent years has demonstrated the ability to destroy satellites with precision. However, this has resulted in clouding debris in orbit, posing a threat to other satellites and spacecraft. The consequences of such actions are severe and should be avoided. Furthermore, the potential for more threatening weapons in space raises concerns about power balances as humanity expands beyond Earth. The interview discusses the implications of anti-satellite weaponry and the need for new agreements to prevent further destruction and the creation of space debris.
