Pretty sure if Google caught the top secret out in the open our enemies have also...

I think space force is a farce - should have named it space balls imo - and just another avenue for ridiculous costs as the airforce has it covered as always...

Army Air Corp made the same arguments against the creation of the US Air Force.

Read recently the USAF is restructuring (yet again) and clamping down on fitness and appearance standards. The latter is long overdue. The former, maybe not.

Isn't it kinda funny how the sat image was supposedly scrubbed, but the video of it in use was not... Almost makes ya think the headline and story might be a bit of fiction...

Remember that old Star Trek episode "A Taste of Armageddon"? We could sure save a lot of money by letting the computers simulate the wars.

Isn't that the real purpose?

War doesn't make sense these days except for population control and money laundering imo

Your enemy today is your business partner tomorrow..
