Lt Gen John Shaw, #USSPACECOM deputy cmdr, on @ascendspace's "Leveraging Our #Allies in National Security #Space" panel: It shows that all of our nations are continuing to focus more on more on #space & focusing on it together. #BetterTogether
Shaw recognizes work of @18SPCS & American/allied #space professionals at Combined Force Space Component Command & Joint Task Force-Space Defense for their work in relation to this week's Russian #ASAT test. 🛰️ @UKTeamVandenbe1 #VandenbergSFB @psgarrison #SchrieverSFB
Shaw says #USSPACECOM will continue to do its mission: do our best to understand what is going on in our domain (100km & up w no upper limit); make it transparent to all other users; share data w allies/partners/world; make it as safe as we can for further activity in #space.
#USSPACECOM area of operations = #astrographic

Shaw echoing @HarvSmyth on #allied messaging: It's been a little more than 48hrs since Russian #ASAT event, yet many nations (#UK #France #Australia #NewZealand) & organizations (@EU_Commission @NATO) have expressed condemnation about this event. ...
... This speaks for itself how we're coming together & acknowledging & pointing out irresponsible behavior "very quickly & near spontaneously." @BWallaceMP was 1 of 1st leaders to publicly condemn event. @PeterDutton_MP @PhilTwyford @florence_parly @ChiefofAirStaff among others.
Shaw: 🇺🇸, allies already working at the operational level through #Vandenberg's Combined Space Operations Center. Space professionals there often communicate w ops centers in 🇬🇧 (#UKSpOC) & 🇦🇺 (#AUSpOC), sharing awareness & data in the space domain. @UKSpaceCmd @AusAirForce
@UKSpaceCmd @AusAirForce More on @UKSpaceCmd, its creation & mission, as mentioned by @HarvSmyth. 🇬🇧🛰️

... Our allies are organizing toward #space: creations of @UKSpaceCmd & German space command (#Weltraumkommado) & renaming @Armee_de_lair to incl "space." Shaw says there are policy indications/ accomplishments across the board we shouldn't forget. @BMVg_Bundeswehr
Shaw, echoing Armagno, Hogan & @HarvSmyth, says he is proud of how "we've come together as an #allied & partner collective, recognizing that this (#Russia #ASAT test) is not acceptable, is irresponsible & that we need to be more responsible as we move forward."
@UKSpaceCmd @Armee_de_lair @BMVg_Bundeswehr "@DeptDefence will establish a Space Division headquarters within the @AusAirForce in early 2022, with personnel from all areas within Defence reflecting the importance of the Space domain."
