technological threat to Life as we know

00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:39,559
it in the 21st century almost every
7
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:42,399
aspect of Our Lives hinges on the use of
8
00:00:39,558 --> 00:00:45,119
satellites orbiting our planet
9
00:00:42,399 --> 00:00:48,198
everything we do is tied to

space satellites underpin the entire

time not only do they make the world go
20
00:01:12,359 --> 00:01:19,039
round they also make it more safe
21
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:21,840
providing military personnel with secure

00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:24,759
and immediate Communications in times of

00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:27,439
national and international
24
00:01:24,759 --> 00:01:30,400
threat since the dawn of the satellite
25
00:01:27,438 --> 00:01:33,839
era space has been cluttered with more
26
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:35,719
and more technology for societal and
27
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,680

28
00:01:35,719 --> 00:01:40,359
advancements with threats from
29
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:43,640
unidentified aerial objects and
30
00:01:40,359 --> 00:01:48,039
identified States ever increasing comes
31
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:51,280
a new age of Defense protecting assets
32
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:54,880
and asserting dominance in the final

00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:57,840
frontier the space force the First new
34
00:01:54,879 --> 00:02:00,679
branch of the United States military
35
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:04,000
since the Air Force was created almost
36
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:07,520
75 years
37
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:11,280
ago come with us as we dissect
38
00:02:07,519 --> 00:02:17,039
Humanity's Voyage into outer space and
39
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:17,039
preparation for the dawn of Galactic
40
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:31,759
Warfare
41
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,120
what do you think are the chances of a
42
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:50,239
third world
43
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:53,800
war well I think that um provided the
44
00:02:50,239 --> 00:02:56,840
the nations of the Free World don't
45
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:59,239
throw away everything we've done in the
46
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:01,719
last 10 years in building up a
47
00:02:59,239 --> 00:03:04,158
tremendous deterent to aggression
48
00:03:01,719 --> 00:03:06,239
provided that is understood and done
49
00:03:04,158 --> 00:03:09,878
then I think the chances of a third
50
00:03:06,239 --> 00:03:13,319
world war in any future we can foresee
51
00:03:09,878 --> 00:03:17,560
are very small are these Russian Sputnik
52
00:03:13,318 --> 00:03:19,399
a threat to World Peace no I think that
53
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:22,199
people have become
54
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:25,000
rather the word would be emotionally
55
00:03:22,199 --> 00:03:26,878
disturbed by the satellite which had to
56
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,080
come scientifically and which I said so
57
00:03:26,878 --> 00:03:30,798
two years
58
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:33,319
ago it's it's
59
00:03:30,799 --> 00:03:36,159
it's uh it has a military significance
60
00:03:33,318 --> 00:03:38,479
of course because it will enable you to
61
00:03:36,158 --> 00:03:40,120
to photograph your enemy's country
62
00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:42,840
eventually the satellite will be
63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,719
controlled and you will have eventually
64
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,519
television equipment inside it all those
65
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:50,359
sort of things will come but I don't see
66
00:03:47,519 --> 00:03:54,680
why it should be
67
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:58,680
a a threat to the peace I think it's
68
00:03:54,680 --> 00:04:01,599
just a scientific advance I think the
69
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:04,400
deterent to aggression on the part of
70
00:04:01,598 --> 00:04:07,839
any ruler today is very
71
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:10,640
great oh yes I think it's um easily easy
72
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,200
to explain I think there are two basic
73
00:04:10,639 --> 00:04:14,119
factors in the change of Russian
74
00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:16,159
attitude towards the West one is the
75
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,478
nuclear bomb they know if that ever goes
76
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,959
off it to destroy Russia completely and
77
00:04:18,478 --> 00:04:22,279
the other is the presence physical
78
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:24,519
presence of China on a very undefended
79
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,198
and a very long froner not an immediate
80
00:04:24,519 --> 00:04:29,079
Menace but certainly a menace when they
81
00:04:26,199 --> 00:04:31,199
get the nuclear weapon the Department's
82
00:04:29,079 --> 00:04:34,159
principal priorities are long-term
83
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:36,400
strategic competitions with China and
84
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,600
Russia given the magnitude of the
85
00:04:36,399 --> 00:04:41,399
threats they posed US security and
86
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,560
prosperity today Congress must commit to
87
00:04:41,399 --> 00:04:45,719
both an increased and sustained
88
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,839
investment in our
89
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,560
capabilities China and Russia continue
90
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:53,000
to invest across the full range of
91
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:55,240
nuclear cyber space and conventional
92
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,399
capabilities both states are focused on
93
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,160
limiting our ability to project power in
94
00:04:57,399 --> 00:05:00,198
undermining The credibility of our
95
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,479
alliance
96
00:05:00,199 --> 00:05:04,759
space is one of our Vital national
97
00:05:02,478 --> 00:05:07,319
interests in sense of our use of space
98
00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:10,080
our operations in space and it is
99
00:05:07,319 --> 00:05:12,759
becoming a contested Warf fighting
100
00:05:10,079 --> 00:05:15,120
domain and we have got to adapt to that
101
00:05:12,759 --> 00:05:17,800
reality as their actions made
102
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:21,600
clear our adversaries have transformed
103
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:24,199
space into a war fighting domain already
104
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:26,720
and the United States will not shrink
105
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:26,720
from this
106
00:05:28,478 --> 00:05:31,478
challenge
107
00:05:32,918 --> 00:05:41,318
big isn't it big and challenging and
108
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:43,000
threatening within the last few years
109
00:05:41,319 --> 00:05:45,080
this space environment has become
110
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,399
teneted with scores of orbiting
111
00:05:45,079 --> 00:05:51,399
satellites penetrated by hundreds of
112
00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:54,079
space probes crossed by thousands of
113
00:05:51,399 --> 00:05:55,359
missiles the shape of things to come
114
00:05:54,079 --> 00:05:58,519
will bring new
115
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:01,120
challenges the exploration of space and
116
00:05:58,519 --> 00:06:04,279
the peaceful uses of of its environment
117
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:07,519
and new threats the dangers of national
118
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:10,638
Annihilation or blackmail by space
119
00:06:07,519 --> 00:06:13,120
Weaponry to face the challenge to guard
120
00:06:10,639 --> 00:06:16,800
against the threat we must be able to
121
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:19,759
detect identify and track many space
122
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:22,079
objects instantly and
123
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:24,840
concurrently to understand the battle
124
00:06:22,079 --> 00:06:27,038
for dominance in the final frontier we
125
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:29,959
must look back through history to the
126
00:06:27,038 --> 00:06:33,560
precursor of the ICBM the
127
00:06:29,959 --> 00:06:33,560
intercontinental ballistic
128
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:39,360
missile out of the horrors of war came a
129
00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:42,399
technological advancement that would
130
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:45,439
change the course of human history
131
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:48,719
Forever This is the Inception of space
132
00:06:45,439 --> 00:06:51,000
travel and it begins in Nazi Germany the
133
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,000
terror weapon known as the B2 was to run
134
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,038
the gamut of many dangerous failures
135
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,959
before its ultimate successful launching
136
00:06:55,038 --> 00:06:58,878
but from these failures Germany was to
137
00:06:56,959 --> 00:07:01,519
Fashion the grandfather of the space
138
00:06:58,879 --> 00:07:03,599
vehicle to come some of the misfires as
139
00:07:01,519 --> 00:07:05,109
Illustrated in this captured German film

[Music]
142
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,359
viewing but finally failure turned into
143
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:13,279
success and Adolf Hitler had a new and
144
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,800
horrible weapon with which to terrorize
145
00:07:13,279 --> 00:07:19,758
the British Empire the race to survive
146
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,759
meant consistently improving
147
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,960
technology this was the Genesis of the
148
00:07:23,079 --> 00:07:28,318
rocket missile Rockets were initially
149
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:29,878
developed for the purpose of long range
150
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:32,879
destruction
151
00:07:29,879 --> 00:07:35,560
regardless of their intent this changing
152
00:07:32,879 --> 00:07:38,319
technology captivated new interest in
153
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:40,478
engineering and Military might they
154
00:07:38,319 --> 00:07:42,680
would attempt to send the rocket much
155
00:07:40,478 --> 00:07:44,918
farther than an attack on neighboring
156
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:47,759
countries however the advanced
157
00:07:44,918 --> 00:07:51,240
technology also provided Humanity with
158
00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:53,479
potential access to go even further into
159
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,478

AIR research and development
163
00:08:04,038 --> 00:08:09,639
command there was no question that the
164
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:11,439
ICBM would be coming along uh once you
165
00:08:09,639 --> 00:08:13,759
had the V2 as a matter of fact the
166
00:08:11,439 --> 00:08:16,000
Germans had on on the drawing boards an
167
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:19,240
intercontinental ballistic
168
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:23,639
missile I can recall a speech I made in
169
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:27,439
uh San Diego California in 19 early in
170
00:08:23,639 --> 00:08:30,800
1957 in which uh I stated that we had
171
00:08:27,439 --> 00:08:34,599
the wherewithal to go in space in a real
172
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:36,440
in a real way uh it was strange that I
173
00:08:34,599 --> 00:08:38,959
received a wire the next day from the
174
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,719
Pentagon which said don't use the word
175
00:08:38,958 --> 00:08:43,119
space in any of your speeches in the
176
00:08:40,719 --> 00:08:45,160
future Air Force has been on the Leading
177
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,639
Edge of technology and it's played a
178
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:50,319
very important Innovative role in this
179
00:08:47,639 --> 00:08:53,399
country space of course was a major
180
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:56,800
spin-off the uh the ICBM program
181
00:08:53,399 --> 00:09:00,039
provided the platform to get into space
182
00:08:56,799 --> 00:09:03,559
and we're still using a lot of ICB M
183
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:03,559
systems in our space
184
00:09:11,639 --> 00:09:15,600
work from the beginnings of the V2
185
00:09:14,278 --> 00:09:18,320
missile in
186
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,959
1942 came the understanding that this
187
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:23,760
rocket had the potential technology to
188
00:09:20,958 --> 00:09:26,199
reach Heights never before
189
00:09:23,759 --> 00:09:28,360
imaginable after the Soviets gained
190
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,640
possession of the V2 manufacturing
191
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:33,240
facilities

00:09:29,639 --> 00:09:33,240
production of these Rockets
193
00:09:33,958 --> 00:09:40,239
began on the 4th of October
194
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:43,319
1957 spotnik 1 became the first
195
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:46,039
artificial satellite to be launched into
196
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:49,079
space this was the next step in the
197
00:09:46,039 --> 00:09:52,319
evolution of mankind and signaled the
198
00:09:49,078 --> 00:09:55,359
start of the Space
199
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:58,120
Race the launch of Sputnik 1 sparked
200
00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:00,720
fear amongst American establishment that
201
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:02,560
the Soviet Union now had the capability
202
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,360
to reach their soil with missile
203
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:07,319
bombardments so what do you see as the
204
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:09,480
West Next Step well we've going to gone
205
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,640
over a number of steps as you know and
206
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,759
in New York this time we were able to
207
00:10:11,639 --> 00:10:14,838
arrange at least I'm confident we shall
208
00:10:13,759 --> 00:10:17,480
be able to
209
00:10:14,839 --> 00:10:19,880
arrange an agreement to prevent weapons
210
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,759
getting into outer space rather remote
211
00:10:19,879 --> 00:10:23,159
perhaps from the ordinary person but not
212
00:10:21,759 --> 00:10:24,958
at all remote if you think of putting
213
00:10:23,159 --> 00:10:27,679
weapons there because you can pinpoint
214
00:10:24,958 --> 00:10:29,599
Targets on the Earth from satellites
215
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,479
just as you can photograph no doubt that
216
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,159
you could
217
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,519
shoot and so that is really rather a big
218
00:10:33,159 --> 00:10:36,838
move I'd hope that the next agreement
219
00:10:35,519 --> 00:10:38,600
would be to concentrate on getting
220
00:10:36,839 --> 00:10:40,560
observers over the whole of the NATO and
221
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,200
wara packed area but the Russians have
222
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,919
taken that back to look at it it's now
223
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:47,278
going to be considered in Geneva when
224
00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:49,439
the um disarmament conference
225
00:10:47,278 --> 00:10:50,720
reassembles I would hope still that that
226
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,200
would be the next step although there
227
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,120
are great difficulties apparently from
228
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:57,839
the Russians point of view as tensions
229
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,839
increased the Soviet Union began to
230
00:10:57,839 --> 00:11:01,720
exhibit their power with the launch of
231
00:10:59,839 --> 00:11:06,320
Sputnik
232
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:10,759
2 America had to catch
233
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:12,600
up well to my way of thinking the
234
00:11:10,759 --> 00:11:17,319
existence of these two satellites and
235
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:20,480
their orbits constitutes for us in this
236
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:23,639
country possibly the gravest military
237
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:27,000
threat that we have ever had to
238
00:11:23,639 --> 00:11:29,600
face I say that because it is possible
239
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:32,159
that the threat is not only of a
240
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,879
different order of magnitude to any that
241
00:11:32,159 --> 00:11:35,519
we have had to face before but is of
242
00:11:33,879 --> 00:11:38,120
entirely different
243
00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:41,600
character in the past threats to this
244
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:44,039
country have been threats of invasion
245
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:47,440
surface Invasion as you might say by sea
246
00:11:44,039 --> 00:11:50,679
by land by what they call conventional
247
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:53,639
means they have been threats that it was
248
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:56,078
possible to envisage in ordinary
249
00:11:53,639 --> 00:11:59,600
everyday terms and against which one
250
00:11:56,078 --> 00:12:01,719
could prepare to defend oneself the
251
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:05,278
threat posed Now by these
252
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:07,240
satellites is not of just Invasion and
253
00:12:05,278 --> 00:12:09,600
traditional battle fighting it is a
254
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,519
threat of total and absolute
255
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,240
annihilation of this country and
256
00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:15,000
everything in
257
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:19,039
it
258
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:20,399
now as I say the the threat may be of
259
00:12:19,039 --> 00:12:24,078
that magnitude
260
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:26,399
now everything depends at the moment in
261
00:12:24,078 --> 00:12:30,120
my view on the fate of that riched
262
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:33,480
dog if it is possible for the Russians
263
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:36,240
to bring that dog either alive or in
264
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:39,560
recognizable form back to the surface of
265
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:42,000
the Earth at some predetermined point
266
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:44,599
then indeed our danger is acute because
267
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,799
it means that instead of a dog it may be
268
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:50,159
possible to deliver a
269
00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:52,679
bomb a Megaton hydrogen bomb at a
270
00:12:50,159 --> 00:12:55,039
predetermined point on the surface of
271
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:57,638
this globe and if that predetermined
272
00:12:55,039 --> 00:13:01,198
Point happens to be in this country as I
273
00:12:57,639 --> 00:13:03,759
say we Face the threat thre of total
274
00:13:01,198 --> 00:13:05,958
annihilation in general terms therefore
275
00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:08,399
we have every right to be extremely
276
00:13:05,958 --> 00:13:09,719
apprehensive about future developments
277
00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:13,919
and in my
278
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:16,160
view there has been a total and absolute
279
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:19,799
revolution in the balance of military
280
00:13:16,159 --> 00:13:23,480
power on the 31st of January
281
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:26,719

00:18:45,798 --> 00:18:50,839
for this historic flight which led him
384
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:56,080
to become a national

judgment this nation's orbital
390
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:29,038
pioneering in space is of such historic
391
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:30,879
stature representing as it does a vast
392
00:19:29,038 --> 00:19:33,279
advancement that will profoundly
393
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:36,440
influence the progress of all
394
00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:38,918
mankind it signals also a call for
395
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:41,038
alertness to our national
396
00:19:38,919 --> 00:19:44,038
opportunities and
397
00:19:41,038 --> 00:19:47,279

398
00:19:44,038 --> 00:19:50,279
and moral stamina to equal the stresses
399
00:19:47,279 --> 00:19:53,038
of these times and a willingness to meet

00:19:50,279 --> 00:19:55,599

405
00:20:02,038 --> 00:20:07,279
this nation should commit itself to
406
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:09,879

568
00:28:20,159 --> 00:28:24,320
geosynchronous satellites which your
569
00:28:21,759 --> 00:28:26,919
command control Communications uh would
570
00:28:24,319 --> 00:28:28,839
certainly be a very valuable or very
571
00:28:26,919 --> 00:28:30,720
priority priority Target do you think
572
00:28:28,839 --> 00:28:33,079
the Soviet Union is more advanced in
573
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:35,519
space Weaponry yes I think so I can't
574
00:28:33,079 --> 00:28:39,759
get into our intelligence estimates for
575
00:28:35,519 --> 00:28:42,960
classification on that but
576
00:28:39,759 --> 00:28:45,720
uh I feel they're they're ahead of us in
577
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:47,759
in Laser Technology for for a spacebase
578
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:50,000
system uh those satellites that are
579
00:28:47,759 --> 00:28:52,359
providing information to the commanders
580
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:56,398
on the ground that uh that are
581
00:28:52,359 --> 00:28:59,278
destroying our uh uh resources certainly
582
00:28:56,398 --> 00:29:03,678
if we could take out that capability uh
583
00:28:59,278 --> 00:29:06,960
from the Soviet commanders we would do
584
00:29:03,679 --> 00:29:10,480
that fast forward to
585
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:14,720
2018 space is a war fighting
586
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:18,720
domain just like the land air and
587
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:21,159
sea we may even have a space force
588
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:23,839
develop another one space force we have
589
00:29:21,159 --> 00:29:26,720
the Air Force or the space force we have
590
00:29:23,839 --> 00:29:28,678
the Army the Navy you know I was saying
591
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,519
it the other day because we're doing a
592
00:29:28,679 --> 00:29:32,159
tremendous amount of work in space I
593
00:29:30,519 --> 00:29:34,720
said maybe we need a new Force we'll
594
00:29:32,159 --> 00:29:36,440
call the space force and I was not
595
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:39,399
really serious and then I said what a
596
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:41,919
great idea may have to do this though
597
00:29:39,398 --> 00:29:44,639
widely seen as a vanity project for
598
00:29:41,919 --> 00:29:47,799
president Trump the debate surrounding
599
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:50,519
the creation of a space force is nothing
600
00:29:47,798 --> 00:29:53,480
new protecting and monitoring of
601
00:29:50,519 --> 00:29:56,399
activity in our orbit has always been a
602
00:29:53,480 --> 00:30:00,679
defense issue and at the Forefront of
603
00:29:56,398 --> 00:30:00,678
military mindes for the last few
604
00:30:03,159 --> 00:30:07,919
decades from
605
00:30:04,919 --> 00:30:11,278
1947 space defense has been under the
606
00:30:07,919 --> 00:30:14,200
jurisdiction of the Air Force until
607
00:30:11,278 --> 00:30:19,720
1982 when a subdivision of the Air Force
608
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:19,720
was created called the Air Force space
609
00:30:19,759 --> 00:30:24,839
command the appreciation of its power
610
00:30:22,558 --> 00:30:27,519
was felt in its first major employment
611
00:30:24,839 --> 00:30:31,158
during the Gulf War often referred ref
612
00:30:27,519 --> 00:30:33,319
to as the first space War capabilities
613
00:30:31,159 --> 00:30:35,880
to pinpoint military and Ballistic
614
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:38,678
targets as well as protecting vital
615
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:41,640
Communications from satellites gave the
616
00:30:38,679 --> 00:30:43,840
American Le Coalition the upper hand on
617
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,840
all
618
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:53,399
fronts The increased presence and
619
00:30:50,839 --> 00:30:56,359
potentiality of war from American
620
00:30:53,398 --> 00:30:58,839
adversaries reignited the debate for the
621
00:30:56,359 --> 00:31:01,839
creation of a sixth branch of the
622
00:30:58,839 --> 00:31:04,278
greatest military body in the world a
623
00:31:01,839 --> 00:31:04,278
space
624
00:31:07,359 --> 00:31:12,558
force as our lives rapidly became
625
00:31:10,278 --> 00:31:15,278
intrinsically linked with the technology
626
00:31:12,558 --> 00:31:17,480
in our upper atmosphere Congress
627
00:31:15,278 --> 00:31:20,398
questioned whether the Air Force could
628
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,399
handle the latest
629
00:31:20,638 --> 00:31:26,319
challenges January
630
00:31:23,359 --> 00:31:29,119
2001 A Space commission headed by Donald
631
00:31:26,319 --> 00:31:32,119
Rumsfeld put forward the need for an
632
00:31:29,119 --> 00:31:34,319
overhaul of National Space policy
633
00:31:32,119 --> 00:31:37,479
wanting to give the president power to
634
00:31:34,319 --> 00:31:40,879
deploy weapons in need of a deterrence
635
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:44,278
or to protect us
636
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:47,399
interests in response China started its
637
00:31:44,278 --> 00:31:49,839
own space defense program and pursued
638
00:31:47,398 --> 00:31:53,000
anti-satellite defense
639
00:31:49,839 --> 00:31:55,558

640
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:59,159
efforts to evolve the Air Force's space

command is
646
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:29,480

00:32:26,398 --> 00:32:32,359
pursue further dominance in the final
648
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,720

00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,798
their
652
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:46,558
opportunity how can we believe that the
653
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:49,240
Russian Federation is serious about
654
00:32:46,558 --> 00:32:50,839
preventing an arms race in outer space
655
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,480
when they are the ones that are
656
00:32:50,839 --> 00:32:55,000
developing ground launched

660
00:33:00,319 --> 00:33:04,319
who intends to uphold its obligations

00:33:02,359 --> 00:33:07,719
under arms control and disarmament
662

conducts an anti-satellite missile test
671
00:33:33,839 --> 00:33:39,079
on their own weather satellite the first

00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:42,120
seen since
673
00:33:39,079 --> 00:33:46,439
1985 the impact from the kinetic kill

677
00:33:53,599 --> 00:33:59,638
27,000 other pieces that orbits us today
678
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:02,960

00:34:37,878 --> 00:34:44,039
size a shift with potentially huge
694
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,559
implications for both high-tech industry
695
00:34:44,039 --> 00:34:48,639
and National

00:34:48,639 --> 00:34:54,760
leader in satellite-based
698
00:34:50,519 --> 00:34:54,759
positioning change was
699
00:34:55,878 --> 00:34:58,878
necessary
700
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:17,920
a whole of them look on
701
00:35:15,079 --> 00:35:20,200
Thea my
702
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,880
gosh they're all going against the wind
703
00:35:20,199 --> 00:35:22,399
the
704
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:25,599
wind's
705
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:27,559
West dude throughout that time threats
706
00:35:25,599 --> 00:35:30,079
from an unknown source began to
707
00:35:27,559 --> 00:35:32,199
highlight a lack of control the US had
708
00:35:30,079 --> 00:35:35,280
over its
709
00:35:32,199 --> 00:35:38,199
airspace is it our own technology is it
710
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:40,119
the Chinese is it the Russians because
711
00:35:38,199 --> 00:35:41,480
at the end of the day come what made
712
00:35:40,119 --> 00:35:44,400
they've got to look at this in an
713
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:46,920
objective manner someone in the military
714
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,639
is sick and tired of the lies and the
715
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,280
disinformation that they keep bringing
716
00:35:48,639 --> 00:35:52,960
forward and you know fobbing off to the
717
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,440
general public someone wanted this out
718
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,240
and I'm glad that they did because they
719
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:58,639
were the only ones that could do this it
720
00:35:56,239 --> 00:36:00,159
was like they like of me or you know
721
00:35:58,639 --> 00:36:02,639
someone else coming forward with all
722
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:03,799
look at this film footage of this UFO
723
00:36:02,639 --> 00:36:08,759
they wouldn't buy it they wouldn't have
724
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:13,000
it it had to come from a official
725
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:15,160
Source there was no visual wings or Aro
726
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:18,400
foils you know that you would expect to
727
00:36:15,159 --> 00:36:20,480
see on an aircraft they' said well it
728
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:22,760
could be the Russians or
729
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:27,119
China we don't think it
730
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:28,760
is but it might be so is that uh you
731
00:36:27,119 --> 00:36:31,318
know sort of back door wave saying we
732
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:34,240
need more money for uh the defense
733
00:36:31,318 --> 00:36:36,079
budget just in case these things are you
734
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,598
know our foreign adversaries have they
735
00:36:36,079 --> 00:36:40,960
devised some fantastic craft it can
736
00:36:38,599 --> 00:36:43,519
exceed you know the the capabilities of
737
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:45,838
modern aircraft and if so we have to be
738
00:36:43,519 --> 00:36:47,679
very concerned with that so obviously we
739
00:36:45,838 --> 00:36:50,400
have to look over the fence to the
740
00:36:47,679 --> 00:36:51,440
possibilities that it's another country
741
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,079
that
742
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,119
said I I still believe we're dealing
743
00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:58,440
with something extraterrestrial or
744
00:36:56,119 --> 00:37:01,240
interd
745
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:04,200
whether it is from Paranormal or normal
746
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:07,159
origin the official military videos of
747
00:37:04,199 --> 00:37:09,879
unidentified aerial phenomena captured
748
00:37:07,159 --> 00:37:13,279
and released by the United States Navy
749
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:15,559
shows that someone terrestrial or
750
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:18,640
extraterrestrial is testing the United
751
00:37:15,559 --> 00:37:21,480
States's capabilities of
752
00:37:18,639 --> 00:37:24,480
Defense one Earthly possibility for the
753
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:27,599
source of these phenomenon lies within
754
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:29,480
the advancement of Laser Technology
755
00:37:27,599 --> 00:37:32,240
though some of the videos were shot
756
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:35,159
before its disclosure in
757
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:37,679
2017 Russia announced it had achieved
758
00:37:35,159 --> 00:37:40,078
Next Generation Laser
759
00:37:37,679 --> 00:37:42,639
Technology it is not beyond the Realms
760
00:37:40,079 --> 00:37:46,000
of imagination that Russia had been
761
00:37:42,639 --> 00:37:48,960
testing its capacity projecting images
762
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,960
to test its
763
00:37:49,449 --> 00:37:52,869
[Music]
764
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:58,400
foe high-powered lasers remain one of
765
00:37:56,199 --> 00:38:01,358
the big biggest threats with
766
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:04,318
capabilities to recharge unchallenged in
767
00:38:01,358 --> 00:38:07,519
space laser Weaponry has the potential
768
00:38:04,318 --> 00:38:11,039
to pick off satellites one by one in
769
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:13,800
lower Earth's orbit creating havoc on
770
00:38:11,039 --> 00:38:17,719
its societies below our nation of
771
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:20,640
pioneers still yearns to conquer the
772
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:24,919
unknown because we are Americans and the
773
00:38:20,639 --> 00:38:28,039
future belongs totally to us once more
774
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:30,079
we will launch Intrepid Souls blazing
775
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:32,679
through the sky and soaring into the
776
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:36,160
heavens once more we will summon the
777
00:38:32,679 --> 00:38:39,318
American Spirit to tame the Next Great
778
00:38:36,159 --> 00:38:40,920
American frontier and once more we will
779
00:38:39,318 --> 00:38:43,440
proudly lead
780
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:47,800
humanity and that's what it is it's
781
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:50,720
Humanity beyond the Earth and into those
782
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:53,839
forbidden Skies but they will not be
783
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,838
forbidden for
784
00:38:53,960 --> 00:39:00,318
long very importantly I'm here by by
785
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:03,159
directing the Department of Defense and
786
00:39:00,318 --> 00:39:07,559
Pentagon to immediately begin the
787
00:39:03,159 --> 00:39:11,719
process necessary to establish a space
788
00:39:07,559 --> 00:39:14,519
force as the sixth branch of the Armed
789
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:16,959
Forces that's a big statement we are
790
00:39:14,519 --> 00:39:21,400
going to have the Air Force and we are
791
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:22,400
going to have the space force separate
792
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:25,039
but
793
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:28,838
equal our adversaries have transformed
794
00:39:25,039 --> 00:39:31,400
space into a war fighting domain already
795
00:39:28,838 --> 00:39:33,920
and the United States will not shrink
796
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,920
from this
797
00:39:35,358 --> 00:39:39,358
challenge under President Trump's
798
00:39:37,318 --> 00:39:42,920
leadership we will meet at head-on to
799
00:39:39,358 --> 00:39:45,880
defend our nation and build a peaceful
800
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:49,280
future here on Earth and in
801
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:51,800
space America will always seek peace in
802
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:54,440
space as on the Earth but history proves
803
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:57,000
that peace only comes through strength
804
00:39:54,440 --> 00:40:00,400
and in the realm of outer space the
805
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:03,639
United States space force will be that
806
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:06,760
strength in the years
807
00:40:03,639 --> 00:40:07,960
ahead and over the past 18 months
808
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,520
president Trump and our entire
809
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,159
Administration have taken decisive
810
00:40:09,519 --> 00:40:14,318
action to strengthen American power in
811
00:40:11,159 --> 00:40:16,960
space as well president Trump recently
812
00:40:14,318 --> 00:40:19,279
signed the largest investment in our
813
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:21,838
National Defense since the days of
814
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,839
Ronald
815
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:26,720
Reagan now the time has come to write
816
00:40:24,119 --> 00:40:29,640
the next great chapter in the history of
817
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:31,679
our Armed Forces to prepare for the next
818
00:40:29,639 --> 00:40:33,239
Battlefield where America's best and
819
00:40:31,679 --> 00:40:35,759
bravest will be called to deter and
820
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:39,199
defeat a new generation of threats to
821
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:42,720
our people to our nation the time has
822
00:40:39,199 --> 00:40:45,239
come to establish the United States
823
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:47,399
space force now to be clear the space
824
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:49,519
force will not be built from scratch
825
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:52,280
because the men and women who run and
826
00:40:49,519 --> 00:40:54,800
protect our nation space programs today
827
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:57,079
are already the best in the world since
828
00:40:54,800 --> 00:41:01,480
the dawn of the Space Age
829
00:40:57,079 --> 00:41:03,280
America has remained the best in space
830
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,358
as president Trump has said in his words
831
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:07,400
it is not enough to merely have an
832
00:41:05,358 --> 00:41:11,480
American presence in
833
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:14,960
space we must have American dominance in
834
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,960
space and so we
835
00:41:24,039 --> 00:41:29,719
will Senator Barbara molski fought
836
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:31,720
valiantly to make sure that NASA and the
837
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:34,439
International Space Station did not have
838
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:36,000
Chinese involvement but more recently
839
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,960
the Chinese are pushing harder and
840
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,599
harder they've even got a movie called
841
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:43,880
The Martian where they show how the
842
00:41:40,599 --> 00:41:46,000
Chinese space program rescues uh the
843
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:48,440
Americans uh they're pushing very hard
844
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:51,000
to acquire some of our most sensitive
845
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:53,119
space technology and to get Americans to
846
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,960
come and invest in these companies in
847
00:41:53,119 --> 00:41:57,880
China and to bring the high technology
848
00:41:54,960 --> 00:42:00,119
with them so the the concrete examples
849
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:03,119
you're asking for Mr chairman I would
850
00:42:00,119 --> 00:42:03,119
say they're more than a
851
00:42:05,679 --> 00:42:09,960
hundred we know we must deal with these
852
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:14,119
challenges across all domains not just
853
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:16,559
the usual air land and C but also
854
00:42:14,119 --> 00:42:18,599
especially in cyber electronic warfare
855
00:42:16,559 --> 00:42:20,279
and space where our Reliance on
856
00:42:18,599 --> 00:42:22,440
technology has given us great strengths
857
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:23,960
and great opportunities but also led to
858
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,159
vulnerabilities that adversaries are
859
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,440
eager to
860
00:42:25,159 --> 00:42:29,159
exploit key to our approach is being
861
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:32,079
able to deter our most advanced
862
00:42:29,159 --> 00:42:34,279
competitors we must have and be seen to
863
00:42:32,079 --> 00:42:36,440
have the ability to ensure that anyone
864
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:38,559
who starts a conflict with us will
865
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:41,440
regret having done
866
00:42:38,559 --> 00:42:43,200
so in our budget our capabilities our
867
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:45,639
Readiness and our actions we must and
868
00:42:43,199 --> 00:42:48,439
will be prepared for a high-end enemy
869
00:42:45,639 --> 00:42:50,799
what we call Full Spectrum in this
870
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:53,039
context Russia and China are our most
871
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,720
stressing competitors as they've both
872
00:42:53,039 --> 00:42:56,480
developed and continue to advance
873
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:59,719
military systems that seek to threaten
874
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:02,639
our advantages in specific areas we see
875
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:05,078
them in Crimea Syria and the South China
876
00:43:02,639 --> 00:43:07,000
Sea in some cases they're developing
877
00:43:05,079 --> 00:43:08,920
weapons and ways of war that seek to
878
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:11,679
achieve their objectives rapidly before
879
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,680
they think we can
880
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:20,359
respond we will now treat space as an
881
00:43:17,199 --> 00:43:23,679
independent region overseen by a new
882
00:43:20,358 --> 00:43:26,759
unified Geographic combatant
883
00:43:23,679 --> 00:43:31,639
command the establishment of the 11th
884
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:36,400
combatant command is a landmark
885
00:43:31,639 --> 00:43:39,759
moment this is a landmark day one that
886
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:42,440
recognizes the centrality of space to
887
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:44,319
America's national security and defense
888
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,760
spacecom will soon be
889
00:43:44,318 --> 00:43:51,000
followed very importantly by the
890
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:54,680
establishment of the United States space
891
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:56,800
force as the sixth branch of the United
892
00:43:54,679 --> 00:43:59,039
States armed forces
893
00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:02,000
we know the best way to prevent conflict
894
00:43:59,039 --> 00:44:03,679
is to prepare for victory on behalf of
895
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,139

highly sophisticated on orbit activities

00:48:32,199 --> 00:48:36,639

996

space force the resources that they need
997
00:50:37,798 --> 00:50:42,400
to defend this nation you never heard me
998
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:44,639
say you a lot of you were at various
999
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:46,280
rallies you never heard me talking about
1000
00:50:44,639 --> 00:50:48,318
space force that's something we never
1001
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,960
talked about I only figured that one out
1002
00:50:48,318 --> 00:50:51,719
after I became president because I saw
1003
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,480
what Russia was doing and what China was
1004
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,159
doing I said we have to do the same
1005
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:57,079
thing and if you think that was easy
1006
00:50:55,159 --> 00:50:59,679
that was was not easy that was not easy
1007
00:50:57,079 --> 00:50:59,680
it was very

junk they will also map asteroid threats
1027
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:08,680
few threats imaginable are as
1028
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:11,480
devastating as an asteroid or Comet

extinction to some an asteroid threat
1033
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:26,679
could lead to a global cooperation to

save civilization
