Grieco in Space News: Why space alarmism is wrong and dangerous

By Atlantic Council

According to Grieco, “Mutually beneficial scientific cooperation between the United States and China mitigates the risks of turning all U.S.-China relations into zero-sum competition. Let the missile gap myth be a cautionary tale.”
