The House Armed Services Committee has voted to split the US Air Force leading to the creation of the US Space Corps. The move makes the US the only nation currently with a branch of the military dedicated to space, but not everybody is happy with this.

When I read the headlines on FB I saw the battle scene in space from Moonraker(in my head/thought/imagination).

Militarizing space is against international treaties.

Of course, our current dingbat leader is already known for ignoring such signed treaties.
