Colleagues from around the world joined us @fpri.bsky.social in Philadelphia for a TTX to study nuclear escalation dynamics in space. Thanks to @slair.bsky.social @duitsmanms.bsky.social @armscontrolwonk.bsky.social and Emily Holland for support. Game report coming soon!

Colleagues from @fpri.bsky.social and representatives gathered this weekend in Colorado Springs to discuss the emerging threat environment in space for commercial operators. Was the formal start of our work on this very important topic. Stay tuned for more.

One of my favorite anecdotes about the base — and others in Syria — is that it was sold as a hedge against Iranian militias, despite the base (and others) enjoying the Iranian beverage “banana milk” (supplied via Iraq)

I met one of my best friends arguing over Tanf. I had thoughts about the base and Iranian drones in the area. As it turned out, the guy I was talking with shot down the Shahed-129 I was so interested in studying. Sunset over Tanf. An image that symbolizes the withdrawal.
