区块链的概念通常主要与比特币和货币交易联系在一起，然而，这项技术对包括航天部门在内的几个行业具有巨大的潜力。加强网络安全在空间功能流中的关键核心业务中扮演着有害的角色：从供应链、卫星轨道跟踪和数字通信效率。互联的高度先进技术的日益采用使卫星、航空无人机、航天器和地面站暴露在新型网络安全风险之下。黑客、网络威胁以及太空中的网络犯罪是新的趋势。这样的产业生态系统可以受益于区块链和分布式分类账技术(DLT)，这些技术使得智能地分散治理成为可能。这项工作试图进一步揭开空间和区块链之间的联系的神秘面纱，解决分类账通过一个现成原型的DLT/IOTA安全框架(SWIoTA)为关键空间核心功能提供附加网络安全的潜力，最后说明DLT分类账在确保卫星轨道网络安全方面的作用以及空间标记化概念。
The Blockchain concept is often mostly associated with Bitcoin and monetary transactions, however, the technology has enormous potential for several industries including the space sector. Cybersecurity enhancement plays a detrimental role in critical core operations inside the space functional flow: from the supply chain, satellite orbital tracking, and digital communications efficacy. The increasing adaption of connected highly advanced technologies exposes satellites, aeronautical drones, space vehicles, and ground stations to new types of cybersecurity risks. Hacking, cyber threats, as well as cyber-crimes in space are new trends. Such industrial ecosystems can benefit from Blockchain & distributed ledger technologies (DLT) that make it possible to intelligently decentralize governance. This work attempts to further demystify the linkage between space and the Blockchain, address the ledger's potential to provide added-on cybersecurity to the critical space core functionalities, via a ready-prototyped DLT/IOTA secure framework (SWIoTA), and finally, illuminate the roles of DLT ledger to secure networks of satellites orbits, as well as space tokenization concept.
