CASE

Status Quo hinders space capacity

ON CASE- 1.alliance makesUS resillient

HEG- 1. conflict over space inev.

2. steps for providing soft power

2. weaponizing space key

3. Weaponozation TURNS HEG, lose alliances thru weaponization

3. internal links; a. tech, key to heg b. space weapons key to tactic and dip high ground= heg 4. hard power

4. heg decline= glob war

5. comp glitches interfere

5. heg key to global stability 6. even if heg decline is inevitable, plan key 4 smooth transition 7. intervensionism inev. Plan prevents backlash PLAN: USFG increase deployment LEO space weapons SOLVENCY- 1. space dominance possible 2. space weapons tech viable 3. US LEO dominance key

CASE 1. We need to be the first to weaponize, or arms race, nuke war

countries wouldn't want us to weaponize nuke war, 2. US because leadership countries key 2 prvnt will want to china war weaponize no 3. countries garauntee want other alliances 1. countries'll with heg heg=tension be cool with USA , not coop it we don't need space 4. ASATS weapons for not in space heg 5. comp everything glitches, under missiles comp human could be glitches not control HACKED big enough very propable that militar. impact OW, 6. computer Taken wrong nuke war, glitches non way, nuke we gonna unique war die

1. Space not weaponized yet, but militarized

other countries weaoinizing space=nuke war

EX, us heg prevents conflict

not putting weaponizatio missiles in n=attacks space

hard power= attacks

OFF CASE DA #1 1. EX intervensioni 1. impacts sm inev inev. China card. If already we're heg, pushing for no one will space attack 1. obama pushing space policy 2. EX us signaled we wanted to 2. non militize, unique, US someone already would have declared no threat of attacked already 2. weaponization =destroy perception of new obama weap. space china war s.p 3. we must react to impact= china 3. space wpzt=attacks on US, global war, china global weapons 4 threatened heg 3. fiat solves conflict 1. china 4. impacts could attack will occur US, as well unless US as other gets heg w/ asians plan 5. heg= no china coop 5. DEFENSIVE, not offensive TOPICALITY 1. counter interp, develop=mo ving tech from proto to working system counter interp Developing, not exploring, good enough

1. exploration= humans in space

people will come down after initial building

2. violation=no humans in space 3. limits 4. neg ground

OFF CASE

1. militarizaion =percieved ext #1 for threats last neg

we have not militarized, no weapons EX #2 for in space last neg China doesn't war if not threatened

SPACE DOMINANCE

not all heg will be lost will escalate to nuke war, extinction

resolution= develop OR explore

don't explore space, didn't counter violation
