The presentation will go through possibly 101 ways to kill a satellite or at least ruin someone's day. The topic of space warfare is not only an interesting topic in science fiction, but also in contemporary dystopic world (fiction or no).

The presentation is intended to be easily approachable for anyone and while many physics and engineering topics are mentioned, the content should be interesting and educational also for new comers and veterans of celestial warfare alike.

The presentation is divided in two parts. The first part contains a very brief primer for orbital mechanics and spacecraft engineering. The second part goes through methods of attacking a spacecraft and how to possibly defend against those.

Additionally if time slot allows, discussion how these might be applied for game scenarios is encouraged.
