Little Senator Floyd Haskell Ira Hendrick Grumman Aerospace and Senator John Sparkman The Solar Power Satellite Research Development and Demonstration Program Act of 1978 would establish a program in the Department of Energy DOE to pursue research development and demonstration of solar power satellites SPS as a major source of energy.

Technical environmental economic and institutional issues surrounding SPS systems have not been adequately investigated and supporting technologies such as the space shuttle and photovoltaic energy systems are years away from being useful in deploying SPS systems. Under existing legislation the DOE has initiated a SPS Concept Development and Evaluation Program to formulate a better understanding of the SPS concept.

Eugene Tighe Jr. 1921 - 1994 was director of the United States Defense Intelligence Agency 1977 - 1981. Chemical warfare CW involves using the toxic properties of chemical substances as weapons. This type of warfare is distinct from nuclear warfare biological warfare and radiological warfare which together make up CBRN the military acronym for nuclear biological and chemical warfare or weapons all of which are considered "weapons of mass destruction" WMDs. None of these fall under the term conventional weapons which are primarily effective due to their destructive potential. In theory with proper protective equipment training and decontamination measures the primary effects of chemical weapons can be overcome. In practice they continue to cause much suffering as most victims are defenseless. Many nations possess vast stockpiles of weaponized agents in preparation for wartime use. The threat and the perceived threat have become strategic tools in planning both measures and counter-measures. The use of chemical weapons is prohibited under customary international humanitarian law. U.S. Government Printing Office paperback
