How do you fell about a Space Force?

Pence details plan for creation of Space Force in what would be the sixth branch of the military

Mike Pence calls for Space Force by 2020 - CNNPolitics

The President Wants a Space Force. He Might Get One.

Pence said ^^^ in his speech, asking for $8 billion to build out the idea.

It's seven years behind schedule and $163 billion over budget, or as the man in charge of the F-35 told us, "basically the program ran itself off the rails." [Chris Bogdan: Good morning.]

oops, how do you FEEL, my boo boo.

Normally i would say no, however, space is a region that we need, as a race of beings, to conquer. Mankinds very survival requires that we be able to exist, and work in space. The sad truth is, the military has been responsible for more technological advancement than any other source. The space race too added to our technology, but we don't have one of those going on right now.

Thus, it makes sense to put resources towards development of a space force that can be used to defend the Earth from the next big asteroid that could wipe out civilization, if not life itself.

Why can't NASA be reinvested and handle it? They are already up and running? What would a separate space force have that NASA doesn't already have or couldn't expand to handle?

NASA has no mission to defend the USA. The Military does.

what shes saying is they could and without too much effort .....

RW's applauded when 43 cut NASA funding - if Trump decides to spend $100 Trillion a month on space his bots will line up to lick his nuts.


Space- the final frontier. LET IT BE SO !

So, what do you want to be when you grow up?

SOMEONE THAT WITNESSED INTELLIGENT RIGHT WINGERS ON THIS PLANET.

There's plenty of us here, you just need to take the blinders off.

They actually can't. They are not trained or equipped to provide adequate service toward that end. They are scientists, not soldiers.

I think they should It would require a rewrite of their formation guidelines, but I see no problem with that at all.

You want to shoot a nuke into space to destroy satellites? Thats a GREAT IDEA! We can destroy 400 instead of 1 or 2, specifically! Not to mention we cant identify them. Lets just blow them all up!
Or did you mean we could kill 100K innocent people for them destroying a satellite?
I think Trump may be smarter than you wry.. Sad.

Okay. I have an observation. This is not an argument.
I got thinking, after the Space Force was first brought up, that all of our astronauts have been military personnel, trained by the military, even though NASA is supposedly civilian. Why?

Because the military aviator training was the hardest in the world at the time. No one knew what sort of environment space would be so they opted for the absolute best we had.

America is going to need a modern, galaxy class Space Warfare branch in order to keep the throughout the universe. Further, America may well decide to annex new states based on other planets. Those folks are going to need security

From what I heard, the Space Force is going to be a sixth military arm, equal to the Army, Navy, etc. NASA will no doubt be encapsulated into the Space Force. It's too bad that our mission into space has to morph from curious scientists wanting to learn more into a military mission to blow things up. But I suppose we must protect ourselves, too.

[OldLady]

This reminds me so much of the race to the moon. The whole idea of an enemy taking out our satellites is terrifying. Like taking out the power grid. It would bring us to our knees within minutes. Nothing to play around with. I just wonder if it requires an entirely new branch of the military to eat our tax dollars.
The poor Air Force has been standing there scratching their heads and saying WHAT ARE WE, CHOPPED LIVER?

I got thinking, after the Space Force was first brought up, that all of our astronauts have been military personnel, trained by the military, even though NASA is supposedly civilian. Why?

Yeah, I get that. However, at its founding, NASA wasn't sure what kind of reentry guidance they could count on and if you need someone who can pilot a craft in adverse conditions, the US Military had the qualified personnel. However, they were not technically NASA if I remember right. They were "on loan".

There may be an opportunity for a joint mission between the two, but if such a program were to go forward, NASA would play a support role at best.

Not that I think this is a good idea as I don't. We are broke and can't afford this kind of shit.
