The chief of Space Operations of the US Space Force, Chance Saltzman, claimed that China is the major threat in weaponizing space. In reality, China has been advocating to stop the weaponization of space and is eager to cooperate with other countries in space exploration. Even NASA, which has been keen to collaborate with China on lunar soil research, now faces fallout from the “China Space Threat” narrative. The US should recognize that space is vast enough to accommodate both Chinese and American space programs.
