Links, Ground Segments & Constellations
The first space epoch introduced satellites, ground stations, and why space is hard to secure. This one goes operational and adversarial: hijacking a satellite's command uplink (TT&C), eavesdropping unencrypted downlinks, spoofing GNSS time, jamming and anti-jam, breaching the ground segment (the Viasat lesson), CubeSats and mega-constellations, pivoting across inter-satellite links, space situational awareness and ASAT, and securing space systems with SPARTA and resilience. Hands-on CTFs throughout.
