  • The thing is, space force kind of already exists. There is a section of the US Navy called SPAWAR which is dedicated in part to being ready for potential space based threats. It's mostly theoretical and wargaming now days but the idea is that it is ready to develop physical defences to threats if actually needed.

    I'm not clear what the difference between Space Force and SPAWAR will be. SPAWAR is quite highly regarded in academic circles .
