Guys, as I'm looking into possible paths after high school, I'm intrigued by the intersection of military and space exploration. I've heard some chatter about a certain branch tied more deeply into the space stuff - can anyone clarify?
It sounds like you're referencing the United States Space Force (USSF). The Space Force is the most recent branch of the U.S. military, established in 2019. Its primary mission is to organize, equip, and train personnel to protect U.S. and allied interests in space. This typically involves activities like monitoring ballistic missile launches, tracking space debris, and maintaining satellites that facilitate communication for the other branches of the military. So, if you're interested in the intersection of military service and space exploration, USSF might be a great fit for you.
