1. The final frontier

Australia is a member of the international initiative to manage engagement with Space on all levels - military, political, social and economic. Space is not defined, though it can be said to involve everything that is extraterrestrial, i.e., located outside of planet Earth, including beyond the associated solar system known as Sol. With its formal, public foundation in 2005 as the international Combined Space Operations (CSpO), and existing alongside a covert, secret agenda, the initiative has been associated with various names, including Space Force, Starfleet (as in Star Trek), and Solar Warden. Starting with four nation states - Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States - by April 2024 the number on board CSpO had expanded to eighteen. At its core was the American Solar Warden project, dating back to the 1950s, though its existence remains secret and officially denied by government and agencies.

The following historical chronology outlines the history of the various international and Australian Space-related organisations, with a focus on the involvement of the latter country as a minor player supporting the American lead. The Australian military arm of the initiative has been formally known, since 2022, as the Defence Space Command, and exists alongside the commercial arm which is presently called the Australian Space Agency but has existed on and off in various forms since 1987. The issue of Australia in Space is one which is becoming more prominent, as evidenced by the number of government and private sector initiatives and promotions, alongside social media interactions and notices.

With the advent of a public Disclosure initiative following the American whistleblower David Grusch revelations of June 2023, the issue of Space, UFOs (unidentified flying objects), UAPs (unidentified anomalous phenomena) and Alien / Extraterrestrial life forms has in 2024 reached a new level of public interest not seen since the flying saucer craze of the 1950s. This time around the stakes are higher, and the reality of tightly held, secret engagement with off-world issues and technologies has exploded as a result of an internet-enabled public engagement with experts in the field and whistleblowers. In reacting to this, governments around the world, and most especially the United States, have realised that it needs to come clean in a controlled, measured manner, and the best way to do that is through the aforementioned public Space initiatives. Of course there remain groups within the military : industrial complex which seek to maintain the status quo, aka a hegemony over related technologies and activities. Whether they will succeed in this is yet to be seen, especially in the face of extensive disclosures since the 1990s initiated by individuals such as Dr. Stephen Greer (the Disclosure Project), Dr. Michael Salla (Exopolitics) and Elena Danaan as Emissary of the Galactic Federation of Worlds and presenter of Star Nation News, with the latter comprising a very real alternative to the Earth-based initiatives. It would appear that the world of Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock's Star Trek awaits us, if it is not already here.

2. A Space-related chronology

The following is a very brief outline of the Space-related initiatives carried out both covertly and overtly since the end of the second world war.

1950s

* The U.S. Air Force begins working with aircraft companies in the 1950s to design spacecraft carriers, based on the back engineering of Alien technologies and direct knowledge passed on by Alien collaborators. They are eventually constructed in the late 1970s inside massive underground shipyards beneath the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. They are also constructed in Antarctica. Once the carriers were 60% constructed, the engineering crew lived on the craft and assisted with the build-out (Disclosure Wiki 2020).

1960

* Corona Reconnaissance Satellites - a US program providing imagery satellite-based intelligence data. Continues through to 1972. Reference: Sharon Watkins Lang, Project Corona: America’s first photo reconnaissance satellite, 18 August 2016.

------------------

1962

* Kennedy, John F., Moon Speech, Rice University, Houston, Texas, 12 September 1962.

------------------

1966

* Outer Space Treaty, Resolution Adopted by the General Assembly, United Nations, 19 December 1966. Includes Resolution 2222 (XXI) - Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies; plus Annex - Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies, Articles I-XVII. A number of related resolutions were passed shortly thereafter, as excitement over the Apollo program increased, peaking with the Moon landing of July 1969, in which Australia played a small role as one of the Earth : Moon communication centres.

-----------------

1980

* In 1980, President Reagan was briefed on the existence of four or five ET races and on Project Solar Warden. Afterward, Reagan pushed forward the Solar Warden agenda even further than anticipated.

------------------

1984

* The first Solar Warden battle group becomes operational in 1984. The fleet receives major upgrades during the Reagan administration.

------------------

1985

* 23 September 1985 - Formation of the United States Space Command. It operates through to 1 October 2002 and then from 29 August 2019 to the present. 

McDougall, Walter A., The Heavens and the Earth: A Political History of the Space Age, Basic Books, NY, 1985.

------------------

1987

* 21 September 1987 - US President Ronald Regan, in a speech to the United Nations, states the following:

I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. And yet, I ask you, is not an alien force already among us?

This ambiguous statement points to the reality of the promotion of Alien life as a threat and therefore largely placed in the hands of the military to deal with, but also as a collaborator and force for good in the advancement of life on Earth, following on Regan's own encounters and the ongoing engagement of a government : military : industrial cabal in exploiting and back-engineering Alien technologies such as free energy, anti-gravity and warp drive, as evidence by the existence of the TR-3B development program since the late 1970s.

* The Australian Space Office is formed in 1987 by the Hawke government to promote and develop commercial operations in the Space arena.

------------------

2001

* February 2001 - March 2002: British Hacker Garry McKinnon discovers documents linked to the Solar Warden program within the US Space Command system, including one called Non-terrestrial Officers relating to humans stationed in space.

------------------

2005

* Formation of the Combined Space Operations Centre (CSpOC), which comprised the United States, Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom.

------------------

2012

* Darren Perks, Solar Warden - The Secret Space Program, Huffington Post [blog], 10 September 2012. Extract:

When Gary McKinnon hacked into U.S. Space Command computers several years ago and learned of the existence of "non-terrestrial officers" and "fleet-to-fleet transfers" and a secret program called "Solar Warden", he was charged by the Bush Justice Department with having committed "the biggest military computer hack of all time", and stood to face prison time of up to 70 years after extradition from UK. But trying earnest McKinnon in open court would involve his testifying to the above classified facts, and his attorney would be able to subpoena government officers to testify under oath about the Navy's Space Fleet. To date the extradition of McKinnon to the U.S. has gone nowhere. McKinnon also found out about the ships or craft within Solar Warden. It is said that there are approximately eight cigar-shaped motherships (each longer than two football fields end-to-end) and 43 small "scout ships. The Solar Warden Space Fleet operates under the US Naval Network and Space Operations Command (NNSOC) [formerly Naval Space Command]. There are approximately 300 personnel involved at that facility, with the figure rising. Solar Warden is said to be made up from U.S. aerospace Black Projects contractors, but with some contributions of parts and systems by Canada, the United Kingdom, Italy, Austria, Russia, and Australia. It is also said that the program is tested and operated from secret military bases such as Area 51 in Nevada, USA.

Developed by senior Defence officials from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. The 3 page statement is here. The main components include the following:

Vision

Partners in national security space operations leading as responsible actors and seeking and prepared to protect and defend against hostile space activities in accordance with applicable international law.

Mission

Generate and improve cooperation, coordination, and interoperability opportunities to sustain freedom of action in space, optimize resources, enhance mission assurance and resilience, and prevent conflict.

The Importance of Space

Space is integral to modern multi-domain military operations and provides strategic advantage. Space-based capabilities deliver a wide range of effects that underpin daily life, including communications, navigation, remote sensing, Earth observation, weather services, and financial transactions. Maintaining and supporting the availability of these capabilities are in the interest of each nation. Continued delivery of these capabilities requires complete access to and freedom to operate in space.

Space has evolved into a contested and congested operational domain. As space becomes more crowded, the security and stability of this critical domain are endangered. Some nations have developed capabilities designed to deny, degrade, and disrupt access to and utilization of space-based capabilities. These nations have demonstrated the ability to hold space-based capabilities at risk and to target critical assets in an effort to reduce our military effectiveness in a crisis or conflict. Further, the lack of widely accepted norms of responsible behavior and historical practice increases the possibility of misperceptions and the risks of escalation.

The convergence of these factors creates compelling strategic and operational urgency that serves as a call to action. We share a desire to accelerate and improve our ability to conduct combined military space operations, as responsible space actors, in order to maintain security and prevent escalation in space and on Earth. We seek to be prepared to protect our national interests and the peaceful use of space.

Shared Guiding Principles

The following guiding principles are shared broadly among the Participants in the Combined Space Operations (CSpO) Initiative Memorandum of Understanding:

Freedom of Use of Space: Militaries have an important role in contributing to international efforts to ensure freedom of access to and use of space. CSpO Participants work to ensure our national security space operations promote a secure, stable, safe, peaceful, and operationally sustainable space domain.

Responsible and Sustainable Use of Space: The world is reliant on space-based systems -- activities in space have consequences across the spectrum of human activity. CSpO Participants pursue activities that endeavor to minimize the creation of long-lived space debris and contribute to the enduring sustainability of the outer space environment.

Partnering While Upholding Sovereignty: CSpO Participants recognize and uphold the rights of each Participant to act and communicate independently and in a manner commensurate with their own national policies and interests. National efforts are synchronized, where appropriate, through clear and open dialogue.

Upholding International Law: Each Participant conducts activities in accordance with applicable international law, including the Outer Space Treaty, the UN Charter, and, in case of armed conflict, with the law of armed conflict.

Objectives

To realize our vision and mission, CSpO Participants affirm the following objectives to guide our national and collective actions:

Prevent conflicts – CSpO Participants seek to prevent conflict, including conflict extending to or originating in space. By strengthening coordination, building resiliency, promoting responsible behavior in space, enhancing partnership, and communicating transparently, we improve our national and collective abilities to prevent conflict and to promote security and stability in all domains.

Unity of Effort – CSpO Participants seek to enable combined space operations by sharing information across multiple classification levels – from the strategic to the operational and tactical levels, and at a pace that is operationally relevant – through real-time synchronized networked operations centers operated by a
workforce with common training.

Space Mission Assurance - CSpO Participants seek to establish and maintain a robust, responsive, and interoperable space infrastructure enabling continued space effects in the face of adverse action or changes to the space domain. Ensuring the continued function and resilience of equipment, facilities, networks, information and information systems, personnel, infrastructure, and supply chains, we seek to deny the benefit of interference and to ensure the availability of CSpO Participants’ national security mission-essential functions throughout the spectrum of military operations.

Defense and Protection - CSpO Participants are committed to the defense and protection of our national interests and the space domain. This may include collaboration across a range of measures, such as: developing requirements for current and future systems to counter hostile space activities and to deter, deny, or defeat attacks or interference with the space enterprise; delivering the ability for combined, agile, and adaptive command and control through resilient, secure, interoperable, and sustainable communications; sharing appropriate intelligence and information; and timely and inclusive leadership dialogues and decision-making......

* 22 March 2022 - The Hon Peter Dutton, Minister for Defence, Address to the 2022 Royal Australian Air Force and Space Power Conference, Canberra.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen. I’d like to thank the Royal Australian Air Force and the Department of Defence for hosting this event. Especially, the Chief of the Royal Australian Air Force, Air Marshal Mel Hupfeld. In particular, I would like to welcome the many distinguished guests who are in attendance today, including the more than 150 international delegates. There are too many to name individually, but among this eminent cohort are air and space force chiefs, or their representatives, from countries around the globe. On behalf of the Australian Government, thank you for taking the time and making the effort to travel to Australia. Your attendance speaks to the deep and abiding defence relationships that have been forged between your countries and Australia. Between your air forces and the Royal Australian Air Force. All of us are watching the terrible conflict unfolding in Ukraine at the hands of a despot hell-bent on reinstating Russia’s imperial reach and spheres of influence. Here, in the Indo-Pacific, many nations have been subjected to different forms of Chinese Government coercion over a sustained period. And we are witnessing China’s rapid militarisation - the largest of its kind in peacetime and modern times - a build-up unaccompanied by transparency or strategic reassurance for concerned nations in the region and beyond. The times in which we live reinforce the enduring importance of hard power - both in defence of a nation and to deter aggression. And the absolute necessity of like-minded nations working even more closely together to preserve the peace and stability which has, and will continue to push humanity forward. As we know, technological developments continue to change the character of warfare. Particularly in the Air and Space domains. We’ve seen the increasing use of remotely piloted and uncrewed platforms - which can be used on their own, teamed with traditional manned capabilities for force multiplier effects, and used in a swarm capacity. We’re also seeing the growing importance of hypersonics and spaced-based satellite communications. Both Russia and China are already developing hypersonic missiles which can travel at more than 6,000 kilometres per hour. Together with like-minded partners and the United Nations, Australia has long championed the responsible and peaceful use of outer space in accordance with international norms. But space is becoming more congested and is already contested - particularly as the boundaries between competition and conflict become increasingly blurred through grey-zone activities. Tellingly, more than 7,500 satellites orbit the Earth, with thousands more being launched every year. While space is primarily a civil domain - to support navigation, communication networks, financial systems, scientific enterprises, weather forecasting, and disaster response - it will undoubtedly become a domain which takes on greater military significance in this century. A domain which is now an operational theatre which provides space-based communication, intelligence, and navigation to the joint force. We know that some countries are developing capabilities to threaten or degrade space networks, to target satellites, and to destroy space systems. Countries that see space as a territory for their taking, rather than one to be shared. In November last year, as part of an anti-satellite missile test, Russia destroyed its own redundant Cosmos 1408, which left behind a cloud of more than 1,500 pieces of lethal debris that will take decades to clear. For any nation, losing access to space would have significant civil and military consequences. Thus all nations have an interest in assuring their access to space. It is a domain which must be used to deter aggression, rather than become a new realm for conflict. So friends, to that end, it is my great pleasure today to officially announce the stand-up of Australia’s Defence Space Command. I want to congratulate the newly appointed head of that command, Air Vice-Marshal Cath Roberts. Australia’s Defence Space Command will initially be modest compared to those similar, well-established functions which already exist among some of our allies. But make no mistake, we are forward looking. It’s a necessary endeavour with a view to protecting our national interests and our need for a Space Force in the future. Defence Space Command comprises personnel from our three Services, defence public servants, and industry’s contractors. It works in close collaboration with the Australian Space Agency, industry partners, and our research and scientific institutions. Importantly, Defence Space Command is Australia’s contribution towards a larger, collective effort among like-minded countries to ensure a safe, stable and secure space domain. By developing our sovereign space capabilities, we will not only become more self-reliant, but also be a better ally and partner through the combined effects of our capabilities. Australia’s aim will be to invest in new military space capabilities to counter threats… To assure our continued access to space-based intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance and to uphold the free use of space. Guiding the efforts and priorities of Australia’s Defence Space Command is the Defence Space Strategy - which I am pleased to release today. Importantly, Australia and the United States are strengthening our Alliance to support our mutual objectives in the space domain. The Australian Department of Defence and the US National Reconnaissance Office have committed to a broad range of cooperative satellite activities which will expand Australia’s space knowledge and capabilities. Our partnership will also contribute to the US National Reconnaissance Office’s pursuit of a more capable, integrated, and resilient space architecture to support global coverage in a wide range of intelligence mission requirements. Ladies and gentlemen, noting the dual focus of this conference, I’ll turn to discussing some Air Force activities, including those undertaken in conjunction with our allies and partners. Many of the countries represented at this conference have offered significant support to Ukraine. Australia is providing financial aid and military assistance to help Ukrainians defend themselves against their Russian aggressors. I want to acknowledge the efforts of the men and women of the Australian Defence Force. Our Air Force has successfully delivered military assistance on three separate flights of C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft. It is becoming clear that in invading Ukraine, President Putin has miscalculated. He has underestimated the resolve of the people of Ukraine and the response of nations around the world. We must remain determined in what we can do to support liberty against the odious forces of tyranny. In the Indo-Pacific, Australia is contributing to collective efforts to maintain stability and deter aggression in this region. That’s why we participate in exercises like Cope North in Guam - held in early February - along with the US Air Force and Japan Air Self-Defense Force. Among our Air Force contingent, eleven F-35s were involved in the exercise - the first time our Joint Strike Fighters have participated in a trilateral exercise. In the broad, such exercises are crucial for allies and partners to enhance combat interoperability and participate in high-end training. Indeed, prior to Exercise Cope North, Australia accepted four new F-35s in Guam. Our Air Force is now operating 48 of a planned 72 Joint Strike Fighters. And I look forward to hearing reports from this conference which discuss this important platform - a fifth generation, multi-role aircraft which is already, or fast becoming the preferred fighter for many of our partners. Its capabilities are a critical part of Australia’s air combat system that also includes the E-8A Wedgetail, EA-18G Growler and F/A-18F Super Hornet. Another platform which I’m sure will be a topic of discussion is the P-8A Poseidon patrol aircraft. Australia has taken delivery of twelve of these aircraft. Last month, the Government - in conjunction with the South Australia - announced plans to establish a new deep maintenance facility adjacent to RAAF Base Edinburgh. We envisage this facility developing into a regional hub to service not just P-8A Poseidons, but also other aircraft like the E-7A Wedgetail Early Warning and Control Aircraft. Our P-8A Poseidon aircraft already support international efforts - like Operation Argos where we help enforce UN Security Council sanctions against North Korea in response to that nation’s weapons program. Upon finishing a deployment for Operation Argos, a RAAF P-8A Poseidon will fly to Japan to be part of a trilateral intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance mission with the US Air Force and Japanese Air Self-Defense Force. The deep maintenance facility we will develop at Edinburgh is an example of how Australia is developing its sovereign capabilities which will help us step-up our contributions to such regional maritime activities. Of course, our century-old Air Force would not be what it is today without its partnership with industry. One of our most promising joint ventures is that between RAAF and Boeing on the Airpower Teaming System - formerly known as the Loyal Wingman, but named officially yesterday, as the Chief pointed out earlier, the MQ-28A Ghost Bat. This uncrewed aircraft, with a range of more than 3,700 kilometres, is the first combat aircraft to be designed in Australia for more than half a century. It can fly solo missions or be teamed with crewed capabilities for force multiplier effects. The Ghost Bat has already completed successful flight missions. Compared to crewed capabilities, autonomous capabilities can be produced in quantity, relatively quickly and inexpensively, with their loss or damage also being more tolerable. This is our vision for the Ghost Bat - a platform which we anticipate will be of interest to many. Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, friends - I wish you well for discussions as part of this Air and Space Power Conference. Whether you’re here representing one of our military partners, industry, Australian businesses, or our research and academic institutions, it is events like these which can help translate intent into action. Thank you.

* 23 March 2022 - Brendon O'Connor MP, Shadow Minister for Defence:

Space Command Welcome

Federal Labor welcomes the commencement of Australia’s Defence Force Space Command. Investment in space capabilities is crucial in protecting Australia’s interests in our evolving world. The increase in hypersonic missile activity, grey zone activities and targeting of satellites and space systems and networks has hastened the need for capabilities in this area. Improving our space capabilities strengthens our cooperation with like-minded partners continuing to build on those relationships.

* 11 April 2024 - United States Space Force, Joint Statement on the fourth annual Space Chiefs forum. Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs:

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (ANFS) - At the invitation of U.S. Space Force Chief of Space Operations, Gen. Chance Saltzman, military space leaders from 18 nations met for the fourth annual Space Chiefs Forum in Colorado on April 11, to discuss shared interests in space. The nations represented were Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Republic of Korea, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The following is a joint statement from the participants:

“We reaffirm that enhanced cooperation among like-minded partners is vital to adapt to the rapidly emerging opportunities and threats in, from, and to space. We have a shared interest in maintaining the peaceful use of outer space and the benefits of space for humankind. We will continue working together to deter ambiguous, unfriendly, or hostile activities in space. We also emphasize our resolve to continue promoting mutually agreed norms and responsible behaviors in space, including by conducting space activities in a manner that prioritizes the safety, security, stability, and sustainability of the space domain.”

* 12 April 2024 - Michael Salla (X): The US Space Force Chief of Space Operations, General Chance Saltzman, along with the military space chiefs of 18 allied nations, met in Colorado Springs and have issued a joint statement on space cooperation. The joint military statement lays the groundwork for two interrelated processes to proceed over the coming years.

1. The creation of a Star Trek future where allied Earth militaries develop a combined space operations force (aka Starfleet); and
2. The stealth unveiling of a US Navy-run multinational secret space program called Solar Warden that will be rolled out as something newly created, as opposed to being decades-old and first deployed in the late 1970s.

3. Are we alone?

What is Space without ETs? In reading the documentation and statements above regarding the international Space Force and related initiatives, and noting the various activities over time, the first impression is that they are all Earth-focused in the areas of military control of areas of Space - a mirror image of the Earth-based focus on preserving the integrity of national borders - and commercialization of the technologies needed to achieve that control. There is also a sub-text, as espoused in 2022 by former Australian Minister of Defence Peter Dutton, of the United States coalition as the good guys defending open and unrestricted access to Space, and Russia, China and other unknown players as the bad guys, once again reflecting Earth-based political dynamics. There is no mention or adoption of an exopolitical strategy (Exopolitics: the public policy implications of the evidence concerning extraterrestrial life). The absence of any single direct reference to extraterrestrial life and intelligence, or engagement with that as a priority of the initiative, is telling.

Are we to believe that we alone in the universe? It would appear so. Yet there is a plethora of information and accounts out there which indicate otherwise, and have done so in abundance since the late 1940s. The existence of the Galactic Federation of Worlds, for example, and of extraterrestrial races interacting with humanity over the millenia, continues to be officially ignored and actively denied, despite the recent Disclosure initiatives. The acknowledgement of back-engineered alien technology in modern war craft such as the TR-3B, and wider subject of scientific innovation in areas such as free energy, anti-gravity and spacetime warp drive capability, remains above top secret and absent from any of the publically available statements and information. It must be asked: Can this head-in-the-sand attitude continue if Australia and the world is to engage with Space in a manner which is defined by openness and accountability and therefore truly supported by those beyond the realms of the secrecy cabal, i.e., the military : government : private industry players who seek to merely use Space as a realm for maintenance of a hegemony based on power and profit? The democratisation of Space demands openness and accountability. Whether it will come is not assured, based on the previous century of coverup over anything to do with extraterrestrial civilisations and the technological innovation and societal advancement they offer to Earth-based humanity. The various players involved in the Space initiative must adopt Disclosure if they are to succeed militarily, economically and socially.

--------------------

4. Letter to the Minister

The following letter was sent by the present author to The Hon. Richard Marles, Deputy Prime Minister & Minister for Defence of Australia, on 15 April 2024:

A Space Ambassador initiative

Dear Deputy Prime Minister

I would like to suggest that, in support of the Defence Space Command and international Space Force initiative, the Australian government considers the creation of a community-based Space Ambassador program to assist with the ongoing Disclosure agenda and roll-out of the aims and objects of the aforementioned initiative. It is the view of the present writer that if this is left entirely up to the military and government sector, it will be difficult to sell due to the loss of faith in the openness and accountability of both sectors, both locally and internationally.

Having said that, there is a widespread movement throughout the western world in support of Disclosure, and in seeking out information relating to life and opportunity beyond Earth. The promise of free energy and end to a reliance on fossil fuels, the exposure of long-held but secreted technologies such as anti-gravity and warp drive, and the removal of secret and above top-secret classification of things which are undeserving of such, is reaching a point where the public is demanding this take place, after almost a century of coverup. Blanket claims of restrictions and censorship due to national security no longer hold weight, and concerns over the privatisation of technological innovation which would enhance the well-being, safety and security of the wider population – such as free energy – are ever increasing.

I would therefore ask that the Australian government, in consultation with its Combined Space Operations (CSpO) allies, consider my suggestion, and note that I offer my services and experience in working towards a smooth transition of our society as it moves down the path of Disclosure and closer engagement with the international Space initiative. The truth is out there, and a Space Ambassador program would greatly assist the orderly process of Disclosure and enhance the reputation of government as truly open and accountable and working in the best interest of the wider community, rather than overt alignment with vested interests.
