Each year the Global Network Against Weapons & Nuclear Power in Space organizes International Days of Protest against the Militarization and Nuclearization of Space. This year Keep Space for Peace Week is observed from October 4 - 12 with acts of protest and education internationally . Events strive to expose the deadly, destabilizing arms race in space already well underway and to halt the arms race in the heavens. The U.S. has long said it intends to 'control and dominate' space and 'deny' other nations access to space , giving the U.S. the ability to dominate Earth from Space . As the U.S. and NATO move eastward to militarily surround Russia with space technology, we see the emergence of a new Cold War that will only benefit the global war machine and make life more insecure for all that lives on Earth.

Northrop Grumman is intensifying its presence in Maryland in conjunction with the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) - bringing our nation's warmaking obsession to our doorsteps.
