Caelus Foundation and Secure World Foundation will be co-hosting a webinar where will discuss our new research paper entitled “Lost Without Translation: Identifying Gaps in U.S. Perceptions of the Chinese Commercial Space Sector.”
Executive Director, Rob Ronci and Secure World Foundation co-author's Ian Christensen and Kathryn Walsh, will be discussing and dissecting our research in depth, followed by a critically engaging conversation with an exceptional panel of experts; Dr. Brenden Mulvaney, Ellen Chang, and Blaine Curcio.
This whitepaper explores current perspectives that U.S. commercial space stakeholders have on the emerging Chinese commercial space sector and identifies significant questions and gaps in information that these stakeholders have. Via interviews with private sector professionals across the space industry in the U.S., this study provides a glimpse into current perceptions, concerns, and questions about the potential impacts of China’s space activities on their business and investment realities. Common interviewee perspectives are compared to an investigation of Chinese commercial space dynamics in order to identify areas of alignment or misalignment. These findings illuminate significant areas where further research would improve understanding and better enable strategic decision-makers.
