520 $aThis volume reveals the plain facts about Star Wars as seen by Bowman, who in his 22-year Air Force career was director of the Advanced Space Programs Development and controlled the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency studies. These studies covered high-energy laser development, advanced surveillance spacecraft, advanced space vehicle subsystems, and other Star Wars-related research. Bowman begins with an overview of the development of missile systems and their impact on international security and the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) treaty. He also covers the strategic and technical implications of anti-satellite (ASAT) weapons and the ballistic missile defense system. Though the proponents of the Star Wars argue that it is a purely defensive system and a moral alternative to Mutual Assured Destruction, the author believes that it would be a Death Star system, destroying Earth and its inhabitants.
