The Woomera Manual on the International Law of Military Space Operations: an international project to articulate laws applicable to military activities in space
Feb 19: @VSamson_DC will discuss #spacesecurity issues with @UCLA's Burkle Center's interns as part of a new by-students/for-students discussion series designed to engage experts on various issues that span international relations. https://t.co/m5mwleW914
This short article includes a discussion with my @ManualWoomera colleague @mdezwart about the manual project (and other topics) as well as a gif from one of my favorite episodes of Parks and Rec. So, highly recommended. https://t.co/UNJKnKPbpF
Nothing stops the Woomera Manual Board meeting- extreme time zones notwithstanding the work continues apace on the Manual in preparation for state engagement @UNLCollegeofLaw @ExeterCIL @Adel_Law_School@UNSWCanberra
"The more familiar international lawyers become with the real problems and the real threats that occur in the full spectrum of military operations in outer space, the more likely it will be that legal solutions and limits can be found." @dstephens64 discussing the @ManualWoomera.
Seems to be a loose definition of "defensive weapons" here. Also, stay tuned: 2020 version of @SWFoundation's counterspace threat doc comes out April 1 https://t.co/JO8pjMr0vp

The prospect of armed conflict in outer space unfortunately appears to be growing whilst the extent to which countries rely on space for national security purposes and proliferation of counterspace capabilities are contributing to the risk of “space war.” https://t.co/i6rO5DCiJk

Space warfare is now a reality as military operations increasingly take place in outer space.
@dstephens64 explains how the @ManualWoomera project seeks to explain how international law applies to space-based military operations
Professor Beard and the entire @ManualWoomera team are working to address the critical issue of the militarization of space. We are proud to be a part of this work. #NELaw
Yesterday @UNLCollegeofLaw Professor Jack Beard addressed the military leaders and diplomats at the Australia Defense Force Academy in Canberra, Australia regarding work on the Woomera Manual’s International Law of Military Space Operations. #NELaw#spacelaw@ManualWoomera
A wealth of info on #smallsats from @BryceSpaceTech. Trend toward commercial, communications, and larger (I'm guessing more capable) satellites. @SSIResearch https://t.co/2xe8GQdW6l
