---On Monday, during a meeting of the National Space Council, President Trump announced an order to create a "Space Force." While Trump neglected to detail what exactly this sixth branch of the military would hope to accomplish outside of the implications of the name, this is something that Trump has been rallying for since earlier this year. If it goes through, this would be the first military branch created in 71 years, after the Air Force was created in 1947.
So what might be the implications of such an announcement? Are we going to Mars? Will Trump command a fleet of space ships and come to dominate the cosmos before any other space-faring nation can hope to lay claim to the resources of the infinite? The answers are, predictably, far more boring.
The Air Force Is Already The 'Space Force'
You might be surprised to know that in the time between Robert Goddard trying to harness explosions to send things into the sky, NASA sending men to walk on the Moon and GPS becoming something as mundane as AM radio that space has something the military has always had its eye on. The US, effectively, already has a "Space Force." It's called The Air Force Space Command. They have a website you can go to.--
