Synopsis
Michael Coumatos, former US Space Command director of wargaming and National Security Agency counterterrorism advisor under Condoleezza Rice, and William Scott, Rocky Mountain Bureau Chief of Aviation Week & Space Technology and a former US Air Force flight test engineer, join forces to depict how the first hours of World War III could play out in the year 2010.Deep inside the top secret facility that houses America's Strategic Command in Omaha, America's military commanders are playing a nuclear war game. But they don't know that the war has already begun - in space. Financed by Iran, a rogue Russian scientist destroys military surveillance and communications satellites with a powerful electromagnetic beam weapon. Soon the United States will be completely blind, and the Iranians will launch a nuclear-tipped Shahab 4 missile into the under- belly of Europe.It's a race against time. Chock-full of the actual technologies and strategies the US will have to use to protect it's near-space assets, "Space Wars" describes a near-future nuclear threat that puts us all in the terrorist's nuclear sights. In a quieter time, "Space Wars" would be an exciting work of fiction. But the United States is at war, and the most frightening thing about "Space Wars" is that it's all too real.
