Five Eyes

The Five Eyes (FVEY) is an intelligence alliance comprising Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, formalized by the UKUSA Agreement. While primarily focused on intelligence sharing across various domains like signals, military, and human intelligence, FVEY members also collaborate on space-related activities. These include protecting space assets, developing space-based infrastructure, and standardizing operating practices for military forces. They also exploit pooled intelligence resources derived from space-based imagery.
