This work is a dual-perspective assessment of the space industry and the impact it has on the economy. The research question being addressed is: What future growth, if any, will the space economy have and how will it impact the U. S. economy as a whole? This book will discuss the importance of the space industry and understanding it. It will then present a variety of sources and discuss their role in this project. This method combines a micro-level business and industry sector analysis in addition to a macro-level industrial organization analysis.

The topic of American involvement in space has been widely discussed in recent times, especially with the Trump administration's proposal of the Space Force. The information provided by the articles and sources present is, however, not inclusive of all thoughts on the risks and possibilities of space. There is a necessity, especially for the United States, to ensure its own supremacy on Earth and beyond the atmosphere. In conclusion, the research examining the threats of space, specifically the neglected concepts of a foreign attack on satellites, private industrial abuse of space, and stagnation on space activities, are enough reasons to support the creation of an independent Space Force which is detailed in "The United States' Role in Space Activities".
