Why the Space Force is necessary
Audio issues resolved – we’re back for another episode to run a thought experiment on the idea of ‘why a space force is necessary’. With the Space Force being created as the 6th branch of the US military, there’s been a lot of jokes (I’ve laughed at a few). But the Space Force could very easily become a much larger part in humanities day to day.
There are lots of possibilities – a Space Arms Race to a technological transformation that brings human expansion to Lunar and Martian colonies. I’ve been noticing a trend lately that has the recipe for major change and progress…let’s hope it’s in the best interest for all of us.
