	British Aerospace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		British Aerospace (BAe) was a UK aircraft manufacturer, now part of BAE Systems.
		In accordance with the provisions of the British Aerospace Act 1980 the statutory corporation was changed to a plc, British Aerospace Public Limited Company, on January 1 1981.
		The company, initially called "New British Aerospace", was officially formed on November 30, 1999 and known as BAE Systems (most likely to make it seem less overtly "foreign" as it sought extensive US defense contracts and acquisitions).

	UK Space Agencies
		During the 1960's the UK was an early and active participant in space activities, fielding its first national satellite in 1962 and conducting its first (and only) space launch in 1971.
		Likewise, the Defense Research Agency's Space and Communications Department recently assumed the responsibilities of the Royal Aerospace Establishment and the Royal Signals and Radar Establishment for both civilian and military programs in the fields of space technology, mission analysis, and remote sensing.
		British Aerospace Space Systems Ltd. specialized in scientific spacecraft, communications, and satellite subsystems, while Matra Marconi Space UK, formed in 1990 along with Matra Marconi Space France during the merger of Matra Espace and Marconi Space Systems, is a complete space system and ground station design and manufacturing firm.

		The military uses of space are very varied and can be summarised briefly as follows: information-gathering, telecommunications, navigation (global positioning system), meteorology, oceanography, space-based surveillance (analysis and identification of orbiting objects and tracking) and early-warning systems (anti-missile, nuclear explosion detection), in all of which observation and communications play a very important role.
		Alongside this technical-type structure, consideration might be given to establishing a European military space command, similar to the United States Military Space Command, formed by the military authorities responsible for space matters in the WEU countries or the countries participating in the space-based defence system.
		Space is necessary for its existence as a power in its own right, commanding credibility and respect, and confident of being able to meet the challenges of the future in its dealings with its adversaries and also its allies.
