There may soon be a new US military service — for space

Most likely won't happen but...This would be very cool!

Maybe not in our lifetime. I suspect we (humans) will figure out a viable way to get to space and the planets in the not too distant future. The USAF was formed in 1947 from the Army Air Corps formed in 1926. So the flying branch of the military is not yet 100 years old. We went from the Wooden flying death traps to the F-22 in that short time.

Because that's how you get Stormtroopers.

What was once the final frontier could soon become the front line of a future conflict. At least, that's the view of the Defense Department.

"Space is no longer a peaceful domain," Deborah Lee James, the last Air Force secretary, said in an interview. There is a real possibility that a conflict on Earth could bleed into space."

I think he knew that. Do you know of anyone else who perhaps made that same mistake? Think about it.

I may not have noticed or it may be one of the trolls on my Ignore list.

According to the "Whistle Blowers" that's what they call themselves, we already have people recruited from the military academies for off planet service. They say the base is on Mars.
