The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has launched the Office of Space Policy. This was announced by Deputy Minister of Defense Kateryna Chernogorenko at the International Forum "Space for Ukraine", reports UNN.
Chernogorenko also explained why space is important for Ukraine:
1️. Military communication. Data will be transmitted instantly, which is important for understanding the operational situation.
2️. Intelligence data infrastructure. Thanks to satellites, we will know what the enemy is planning.
3️. Early warning of missile threats. This is important for the safety of Ukrainians.
The Office will create a legislative framework, will be a center of technical expertise and will become a coordinator between all participants in the industry: engineers, innovators, developers, government institutions and the scientific environment
