Right, and much like the Air Force once broke off from the Army, we could make a Space Force from the current Air Force, as Tyson suggests.
My understanding is that the plan is to make the Space Force to the Air Force what the Marines are to the Navy. I was in Air Force Space Command a long time ago. We were already quite a bit different from the rest of the Air Force then. We had a culture that was different from the rest of the air force. Our operational uniforms (blue fatigues with a Space Command ascot) were distinct from the uniforms worn by the rest of the air force. So the Space Force sounds basically like a logical continuation of something that has been happening for long time.
We do not inherit the world from our parents. We borrow it from our children.
