**World We Got This Podcast: The role of space in modern-day warfare

**

Continuing on from last week we’re sharing another episode of the World We Got this podcast, produced the Faculty of Social Sciences and Public Policy at King’s, which features some of our academics from the School of Security Studies.

This episode, the second on the changing face of war, looks at how countries around the world and private individuals are expanding their activities into space and how closely these are linked to what is happening on Earth.

Dr Sophy Antrobus, Dr Mark Hilborne and Julia Balm, from the School of Security, also explore whether we need to put in safeguards now, how we can learn lessons from the past and why we should encourage international collaboration to ensure space doesn’t become dangerous overcrowded by satellites and space debris.

The World We Got This Podcast is produced the Faculty of Social Sciences and Public Policy at King’s College London, and looks at the complex issues we face in the world today, asking those researching and studying these global challenges about the impacts they are having on society – and what we can do to help overcome them.
