I think that if anyone were to attack a space settlement, another space
settlement could just send an asteroid Earth's way. Asteroidal
deterrence (like nuclear deterrence) would probably prevent a space
settlement from being attacked. Thus, space settlements will probably be
safer than Earth from attacks.
