In this episode I sit down with Dr Malcolm Davis, a senior analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI). Malcolm's research focuses on defence strategy and capability development, military technology, and the future of warfare. In this episode we talk about the importance of space to national security, what a hybrid cyber / space war might look like, and what space activities by Russia, the USA and a rising China mean for Australia's strategic future. This episode was recorded at the Avalon Airshow 2019. The music is the Blue Danube Waltz by Strauss, as it appears in Kubrick's 1968 masterpiece, 2001: A Space Odyssey.
