President Trump is planning to invoke a wartime law known as the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 as soon as Friday to authorize the summary deportation of some migrants.
One of my proudest Achievements in my first term was to create SPACE FORCE, the First new branch of the Armed Forces in over 70 years… Now that Space Force is up and running, I think it is time to use them against the ALIEN ENEMIES that have overrun the Country. As President, I will invoke the ALIEN ENEMIES ACT and use the SPACE FORCE to finally rid our ONCE GREAT COUNTRY of these - in many cases very bad and evil- ALIENS.
IIRC the space force basically just is taking what was air force space command and spinning it off into its own branch. So they’d not be doing much that wasn’t being done before so much as making that operation independent of the air force, same as how the air force used to be part of the army.
Yep, just added even more managerial over head and made it even harder for joint missions. Space Force still uses Lackland AFB (or whatever joint base it is called now) for its basic training. It probably is mostly just still Air Force basic training
So do they fund or support the minimal observation time made by professionals for threatening NEOs? Or are they just who NASA would call once a threat is established? And at the meeting the President would ask them, “okay, what are we going to do?” And they would reply, “there isn’t anything feasible we can do at this point for prevention, sir. Just evacuate the impact point once we’re very sure of it.”
It really is more a function of time than anything else. The more time you have, the less action needed to change things. Plus, more time to analyze and confirm the path of danger as well as what the object is composed of (very important for what actions to take). Being able to detect early is our biggest weak point, as there is no active 24/7 search fully dedicated to that goal, it’s all done from the night side of the planet during unused time on professional telescopes, and by amateurs wanting to verify their findings. The best way is with a full time space-based sweep in an orbit far from Earth.
I hadn’t kept up with it. I think it will do for NEOs and the like what Kepler did for extrasolar planets. I doubt there’s a dinosaur killer size out there now, but still plenty of city killers to find, and they are the ones we can realistically alter course once we know about them.

Please tell me you made that up
50/50
What has Space Force even done?
Shouldn’t they drop that Agency before making cuts to NOAA?
But dropping Space Force doesn’t make poor people’s lives worse.

You don’t know that they aren’t conducting zero-g battles.
Remember, the enemy’s gate is down.

They’ve constructed very pretty offices on air force installations from what I’ve seen.
