With space increasingly in the news because of the potential for conflict in and from space, we decided to learn more about the capabilities of space power and the implications of space warfare.

Today's episode is with Dr Bleddyn Bowen (University of Leicester) who gives us a fantastic insight into why space power should always be implemented within conventional strategy and political objectives, and why we should move away from exaggerated expectations about what can be achieved in and from space. 

Bleddyn wrote the highly regarded book, War in Space: Strategy, Spacepower, Geopolitics, and here discusses the likelihood of space war.
