But what would happen if these capabilities were disrupted or even destroyed How would we react if faced with a full-scale blackout of satellite communications What can and has happened following the destruction of a satellite In the short term, the aftermath would send thousands of fragments orbiting Earth as space debris. In the longer term, the ramifications of such an event on Earth and in space would be alarming, to say the least.This book takes a look at such crippling scenarios and how countries around the world might respond in their wake.
