Beyond mere capabilities, it is important to understand how Chinese aerospace leaders think, how they make decisions, and what their ultimate goal is during their space endeavors. What are Chinese intentions in space? To what extent does culture and ethics influence Chinese strategic decision-making within the highest levels of the aerospace industrial complex? This book examines these questions and offers four potential scenarios on where the Chinese space program is headed based on this new perspective of understanding China?s space goals. This book is not only required reading for policy makers and military leaders in the US government, but also for the general population, students, and professionals interested in truly understanding the reasons behind what the Chinese are doing in space. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Space Development,$x2191-8171 606 $aAstronautics$zChina 606 $aSpace law$zChina 606 $aEngineering 606 $aAstronautics 615 0$aAstronautics 615 0$aSpace law 615 0$aEngineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 676 $a387.80951 700 $aSolomone$b Stacey$0922600 712 02$aInternational Space University. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438106703321 996 $aChina?s Strategy in Space$92070219 997 $aUNINA
