PORTSMOUTH -- U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Trent Edwards believes the United States has "to be prepared as a nation to conduct a conflict or a war that extends to or begins in space."
"I don't think it's a matter of if, I think it's a matter of when a conflict will extend into space," said Edwards, who grew up in Kittery and attended Traip Academy. He spoke during an interview this week with Seacoast Sunday. "And so we need to protect the satellites that are in orbit."
