Navigation systems, weather forecasts, precision-guided weapons – in the modern age of rapid communication, it is space-based satellite communication that allow for most daily life conveniences. Those same systems also provide mission essential intelligence for warfighters every day. While amassed orbiting technology and space debris have led to a congested space domain, international threats to that technology have also turned the final frontier into a contested space for warfare dominance. To strengthen a coalition focused on maintaining peace and security on Earth’s surface and beyond, members assigned to the U.S. Department of the Air Force and the Royal Australian Air Force are working together at Naval Communication Station Harold E. Holt, near Exmouth, Australia, to advance the U.S. Space Surveillance Network with a C-Band space surveillance radar system and a space surveillance telescope.
