Summary:

With new U.S. public and private sector operations extending into cislunar space, the reach of USSF's sphere of interest will extend to 272,000 miles and beyond - more than a tenfold increase in range and 1,000-fold expansion in service volume. USSF now has an even greater surveillance task for space domain awareness (SDA) in that region. This primer aims to familiarize the reader with "cislunar space." It is targeted at military space professionals who will answer the call to develop plans, capabilities, expertise, and operational concepts
