  1. Indian Space Programme & Some Reflections On Collective Security In Space Indian Space Research Organisation April 23, 2007

  2. 1947 : The Independence of India Developmental Issues Vast resources running to waste In short, Rich country inherited by developing society Formidable challenge to the builders of Nation No wonder, Socio-economic concerns form the nucleus of the Indian Space endeavour THE BIRTH OF INDIAN SPACE PROGRAMME

  3. " ….. we must be second to none in the application of advanced technologies to the real problems of man and society, which we find in our country. … - Dr. Vikram A. Sarabhai • Frank Admission : Existence of abundant down-to-earth problems of development. • Prudent assertion : Science &Technology being crucial apparatus for development. • Commitment : Science &Technology for socio-economic benefits in preference to display of grandeur. • Military Superiority • Technological Dominance • Display of Grandeur Indian Space Program is very different. Very deeply rooted to the society SPACE POLICY

  4. Space for Development • Abundance of Problems of Development Shaped the Indian Approach to Space • Two Crucial Sectors of Space Applications • Remote Sensing • Telecommunications & Meteorology • Self Reliance • Huge Investments • High Risk • Large Gestation Periods Commercial Procurement Quick & Effective Self Reliance Against a possible alternative of reliance on foreign cooperative or commercial arrangements, self reliance was targeted since " ···· large scale benefits can accrue to a large country like India only when we have our own space segment specifically tailored to meet our requirements" INDIAN APPROACH TO SPACE

  5. India is now self-reliant in space even though it does not mean producing all technological systems Most technologies are mastered and absorbed though not all of them are put in mass production. Immunity against "Technology Denials" Remarkable benefits to common man in timely & Cost- effective manner DID IT WORK ?

  25. Some Reflections On Collective Security In Space All the opinions expressed herein belong to the author and do not represent those of the employer or the country. Some Reflections on Collective Security in Space

  26. Security of this infrastructure, their renewal and expansion as needed, and the continuity of the operational services form the core of the Indian concern about security of space. What Space Security Means to India?

  27. Space Security “Secure, sustainable and denial-free access to and use of space for peaceful purposesfor one and all”. Space Power “The term ‘spacepower’ is used normally with the meaning of might. However, here it is appropriate to describe it as the demonstrated ability to use the power of space for human welfare.” What Space Security Means to India?

  28. International consensus based approach Space Debris Sharing of data Sharing of information on threats • Mitigation Guidelines • voluntary measures through national mechanisms” • a practical demonstration of the rules based approach A Few Positive Developments

  29. US Space Policy (October 31, 2006) Recognises the risks posed by orbital debris Seeks to minimise its creation Promises exchange of information Improved debris mitigation practices Threat of Asteroid Strike on Earth & of Near Earth Object Impact A Few Positive Developments

  30. Global Exploration Strategy • Innovation in approaches • Open mindedness • Willingness to learn from the past experiences Whether these participating space faring nations would be able to see beyond their own interests and address the interests of the less space capable nations and in fact the entire humanity? A Few Positive Developments

  31. Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture 1. Self Reliance Self reliance is an instrument to harden national technological capability and space systems against the perils of “shutter control” to serve foreign policy objectives or vested commercial interests under the guise of “security” concerns. Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  32. “technology denial” and “control of export” to state actors is viewed as intentional threat against access to and use of space for peaceful purposes and also against the spirit of international cooperation embedded in the Outer Space Treaty Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  33. 2. Sustained National Consensus Sustained support of the society for the space policy and programmes is a prerequisite for a meaningful long term security in space. On the contrary, the fragility of or the narrowness of the public support for the space activities and its policies, irrespective of the technological dominance & economic prosperity of a state, might shake the very foundations of its security architecture Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  34. 3. International Cooperation India recognises IC a crucial apparatus in enhancing national, regional and global security and utilises this tool effectively. • Collaborating with other space faring nations for enhancing scientific knowledge of our planet earth and of the universe • Sharing this knowledge and experience towards capacity building in less space-capable nations, “Access to and use of space for peaceful purposes for one and all” is implemented. Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  35. 4. The Rule of Law “… Indian delegation considers that the development of Space Law is crucial to the orderly and organised exploration of space for the peaceful purposes. … We reaffirm that the five UN Space treaties – evolved through consensus and accepted by a large number of countries – constitute the cornerstones of the international space law.” Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  36. “We would like to reiterate the Indian commitment to the use of Outer Space for peaceful purposes in the common interest of mankind. We support development and continuous evolution of rule of law for the peaceful use and exploration of outer space so as to ensure benefits to all countries, in particular to the developing countries.” Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  37. Indian delegation urges all countries to respect the sovereign right of every country to have access to Space and opportunity to utilize Space for developmental programmes. The respect for safety and security of Space assets and capabilities of all countries, without any denial or threat of denial of access to Space, is inevitable necessity for all of us to preserve and prosper together.” Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  38. 5. National Commitment to Security India recognises the vitality of space systems, ground segments, and the supporting link for the civil, commercial and other peaceful uses of outer space. The protection of these systems and unhindered uninterrupted continued operation of and services derived from these is its prime responsibility towards its own people and the entire humanity. Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  39. “Any nation that possesses medium range ballistic missiles, space tracking capabilities and the means to precisely insert a satellite into orbit also has the ability to destroy a satellite.” Elements of Indian Space Security Architecture

  40. Some Recent Disturbing Trends 1. Change in Security Landscape US President Eisenhower to Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin on Jan 13 1958 “I propose that we agree that outer space should be used only for peaceful purposes. We face a decisive moment in history in relation to this matter. Both the Soviet Union and the United States are now using outer space for the testing of missiles designed for military purposes. The time to stop is now.” Some Recent Disturbing Trends

  41. “Test Ban Treaty” in August 1963 “Outer Space Treaty” in 1967 Other Space Treaties These are manifestations of the human faith in the rule of law and collective approach to global security. Some Recent Disturbing Trends

  42. The abrogation of Anti Ballistic Missile (ABM) treaty. 2002 • UN First Committee - November 2005 - historical vote against PAROS • The linking of “Freedom of action in space” to “air power and sea power” • “Policy of negation” • Opposition to the development of new legal regimes • The recent test of a ground based anti satellite weapon Some Recent Disturbing Trends

  43. These constitute a potent volatile mix, which has potential to tear apart the basic fabric of collective security. This decadence in the faith in rule based approach to the global security is truly deplorable. Some Recent Disturbing Trends

  44. It is unfortunate that noble intentions of non-weaponisation of space require shoulders of violence. Some Recent Disturbing Trends

  45. There is no alternative to international collective approach to space security. The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 leaves no room for unilateralism of any kind. • A “judicious bouquet” of proposed solution The outer space is the next frontier. Together, let us make it a pleasant experience for the entire humanity

  46. Thank You
