Abstract
Based on the previous section, we can safely say that, in terms of space programs and the tools used, each country is at some point dependent on the resources of another country. At the same time, the leadership of the United States is unquestionable. In my present study, I intend to demonstrate this leadership role through economic and other structural analyses, primarily from the perspective of China as USA’s main rival while also preparing the scientific investigation of a secret entrant, the European Union. In my study, parallel with the economic structure, I also introduce the importance of the enumeration of military force and the global supply of space-related equipment. The aim of the study is to further deepen and prove the existence of a relationship between the leading country and its imitators and followers.
