Excerpts: Our hearing today will examine China's ambition to become an international leader in space, what the central government's most recent white paper on space, released by the State Council in 2016, terms a "space power in all respects." Beijing aspires to lead international space-related innovation and exploration. In a recent example of China's desire and ability to realize its goals in space, this January China's Lunar Exploration Program successfully landed a robotic probe on the moon's far side—a technological feat never before achieved by any country. China has also nearly completed its own position, navigation, and timing satellite network, known as Beidou, which will serve to increase China's influence in countries participating in its Belt and Road Initiative and decrease China's dependence on the U.S.-maintained Global Positioning System. These developments, along with ambitious plans for future milestones—such as a long-term space station, a research station on the lunar surface, and reusable spacecraft—show that China is serious about becoming a space power and is willing to commit the political will and funds necessary to achieve this goal. It is our honor to welcome two distinguished public servants, General Cartwright and Assistant Secretary of the Air Force, Dr. Roper. We look forward to hearing them discuss the strategic perspective on competition with China in space as well as steps the Department of Defense is currently taking to prepare for an era of heightened competition in space. Their perspectives will contribute to the discussion about what China's intentions as a space power might be and how the United States must prepare to respond.
