18th Space Control Squadron, US Air Force Confirmed to Present at Military Space Situational Awareness Conference 2019

London, United Kingdom, January 19, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Space is becoming more congested, competitive and contested with thousands of small LEO satellites set to be put into orbit over the next decade. These assets offer the opportunity to provide un-dreamt of levels of connectivity – but have also cluttered space and debris is now posing a radical risk to other space assets.

With these important issues in mind, SMi are set to host the 14th annual Military Space Situational Awareness forum to bring together key stakeholders across the military, government and industry sectors to discuss approaches and strategies for providing a holistic approach to Space Situational Awareness (SSA).

SMi Group are delighted to announce that Ms Diana McKissock, SSA Sharing and Spaceflight Safety Lead, 18th Space Control Squadron, US Air Force will be giving a presentation on day-two of the conference, taking place in London, on the 1st and 2nd April 2019.

Ms Diana McKissock will be giving a presentation about "International Collaboration and Data Sharing as a Means to Enhance SST and SSA." Her briefing will cover the following:

· How 18 SPCS is working with international partners to advance combined space operations
· How 18 SPCS is working with partners to support pre-launch risk assessment, manoeuvre planning and decommissioning activities
· How collaboration can help us overcome the challenges of operating in a congested domain
· Processing, exploitation and dissemination of data – how to integrate non-traditional information sets
