"Space superiority is one of the most important goals for long-term American survival. Greg Autry and Peter Navarro clearly describe the challenges we face in outer space—and the devastating consequences if America cedes space leadership to other nations. The dangers we face are real. If we don't confront them, the future could be catastrophic for America and the world." —Newt Gingrich, 50th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives
"This superbly researched book is equivalent to the warnings by Winston Churchill in the 1930s regarding the catastrophic failure of leadership by the West to counter Nazi Germany and the Empire of Japan before the onset of WWII.... If we prevail in this space race—which makes the one with the Soviets in the 1960s look like child's play by comparison—the political, social, and economic benefits to the world will be beyond measure." —Courtney Stadd, Former Director, Commercial Space Policy at the White House National Space Council; Former NASA Chief of Staff; and currently Executive Vice President, Beyond Earth Institute
"This book needs to be on the desk of every official in the Pentagon, Congress, the White House, and the Western World, not to mention everyone who wants to understand the Space Race 2.0 now fully engaged between the USA and China in the context of a world that is increasingly hostile to the values of our American republic and Western civilization in general." —Homer Hickam, NASA Engineer and Author of Rocket Boys (aka October Sky)
"The threat of the 21st century...the authors nailed it. The United States is an aerospace nation...from the beaches of Kitty Hawk to the International Space Station to the James Webb Space Telescope and beyond...this and all of the benefits of access to and use of space for the betterment of humankind are at risk.... The authors paint a clear picture of the threats to the free use of space from basic commerce to international security. A must-read!" —Major General (Ret.) Lee Levy, Member of the NASA Advisory Council
