In response to the Soviet invitation to negotiate in Vienna, the Administration may seek a ban on anti-satellite weapons, or ASAT's, that could destroy satellites in high-altitude orbits, while permitting low-altitude ASAT's. If so, it could well miss a golden opportunity to improve American security through a ban on all tests of space weapons.
