As space becomes an increasingly important part of global communications, national security, and critical infrastructure, European governments are confronting a difficulty: How much control do they need over their own space capabilities? In this week’s episode, host Maria Varmazis sits down with producer Ethan Cook to examine the growing push for European space sovereignty and the challenges standing in the way. The conversation explores how supply-chain dependencies can undermine national and regional independence, even when satellites and launch systems are built domestically. Additionally, the two also discuss the trade-offs between complete self-sufficiency and maintaining resilient, diversified international partnerships.

Traditionally, GPS jamming attacks have been confined to the ground; however, new data shows that these attacks could be moving to target signals before they even reach the ground. In this week’s episode, host Maria Varmazis sits down with Dave Bittner and Brandon Karpf to discuss recent research that suggests the attack landscape for GPS attacks is expanding. If this research is accurate, these attacks represent a significant evolution for how defenders think about this critical technology. Key sources: Something is jamming GPS over Europe.

GPS constellations have become foundational in modern society supporting everything from navigation to financial services, making the impacts of GPS disruptions all the more concerning. As reliance on these systems have grown, so too have efforts by threat actors to disrupt them through techniques such as jamming and spoofing. As these attacks have become more effective, they are becoming increasingly common, especially in conflict zones where disruption and confusion can prove exceedingly valuable.
