> If an axis of China, Russia or and any other countries domainate space, you aren't free or sovereign when you need to ask their permission. As a non-american, the US falls under "other countries" in this for me and, as I am much more exposed to US news than russian or chinese news, seems the most driven to use it for power projection and possibly weaponizing it. If possible, I'd like to see a stronger push to organize space faring and orbital access from the grouund up as an international cooperation. Realistically though, there will be a security-council type of result: A few countries with the ability to revoke permission for anyone they deem unfit, because they have the power to do so in practice. Of course the US will do anything necessary to be one of those or the only one to do so. But I wish a more equal-access result would be possible.
