The Future of Space Force
In December 2019, the United States Space Force became the newest branch of the U.S. Military and the world’s first and only independent space service branch. However, more than a year later, many questions remain about this new organization. What are the current and future missions of the Space Force? How does it fit into the U.S.’ overarching military and security structures? How will it work with existing civilian and private space organizations, such as NASA and SpaceX? Will it coordinate with the space operations of foreign nations in the way that other branches do within their own service domains? To discuss these questions and yours, FPRI’s John Nagl welcomes the current Vice Chief of Space Operations, General David. D. Thompson for a special edition of our Main Line Briefings.
