They’ve been able to do this for decades.

I won't take Space Farce serious until i see them stepping inside the U.S.S. Enterprise and go to warp speed.

[Kevin]

This is a joke, right? Haven’t we been doing this for years before “space frickin’ force”?

[RogerFedora]

I don't know, I can't trust a system like this until it's been fully audited by the Cyber Ninjas.

[jsb]

Please tell me you did not just inform Marjorie Taylor Greene that space lasers are a real thing. Really guys.

[danielberlanga]

I thought that the Air Force was already doing this.

[joexuk]

Wasn’t the Air Force doing this anyway? Long before Trump decided to rip off Star Trek?

[bshaddo]

So they rebranded something we were already doing because someone wouldn’t shut up about it until they did?

[alikeehn]

Imagine if all these countries poured that money back into the planet?

[DoomPastries]

Does the camoflage help them blend into their offices?

[mrcesarnieto]

Seriously guys, we are doing serious work!
We're guardians!
SPACE FORCE!

Breaking News: CNN stops talking about Trump long enough to notice decades old technology

[MartinPittBradley]

As silly as this thing sounds, there is some merit to it. The Air Force was given budget but always diverted it.

Love their Camo uniforms!
(Where did they say they were going?)

[ARQ]

Let me know when they fend off space Godzilla.

[HigherQualityUploads]

Didn't CNN make fun of this agency when it was formed? Why should they get to go inside to document it?

[Gypsy]

It's official we now live in a Bond film from the 1960's. Someone needs to give Putin a hairless cat.

[guydegregg]

We've been doing this survalance monitoring for years under the Airforce.

Space force sound like a good name for an anime or a series

[backpacker]

Ok, whoever wrote this news copy, do you know what a satellite is? Guardians "flying" satellites? Sattelites "spring into action"? Give me a break. I'm not downplaying the importance of this mission, but you guys really worked overtime to make this seem a lot more action packed than it is. It doesn't need the spin to be cool.
