  L'Australie crée une agence de défense spatiale

  Le gouvernement australien a annoncé ce mardi la création d'un commandement militaire de l'espace, nommé Space Command. Il sera formé sur le modèle de la Space Force des Etats-Unis (USSF), qui existe depuis décembre 2019. Dans un discours prononcé devant l'armée de l'Air australienne, le ministre de la Défense, Peter Dutton, a souligné que l'espace « prendra une plus grande importance militaire au cours de ce siècle ». « L'espace est de plus en plus encombré et déjà contesté notamment parce qu'entre concurrence et conflit, les frontières deviennent de plus en plus floues », a-t-il déclaré, indiquant que le Space Command aura pour objectif de contrer les ambitions militaires de la Chine et de la Russie dans l'espace, ainsi que tous les « pays qui considèrent l'espace comme un territoire à prendre, plutôt qu'un territoire à partager ».
