Abstract
With the rapid growth of satellite communications, space information network based on various aerospace equipment and corresponding ground equipment, is considered to have broad application prospects. However, since nodes of space information network are susceptible to a variety of cyber & physical attacks, security in space information network gives rise to a great concern. This paper proposes blockchain application in space information network security and some problems that might arise.
