Balloons are well in atmosphere and not even close to space. More of an Air Force problem than a Space Force problem.

A uniform. Which looks nothing like a Bus Driver (Air Force uniforms on the other hand…)

In science fiction. Not in reality, where Space evolved from air forces across the world, not navies.

No such treaty has been signed by any major spacefaring country.

You can say the exact same thing about the Army and Air Force having done the same thing. But you don’t see any serious arguments for trying to merge the Air Force back into the Army.

Much like the Army already dealt with air before 1947. Yet we have an Air Force today.

It is a good metric, considering the Space Force was previously Air Force Space Command for decades.

No. Both the Air Force and Space Force coequal military branches under the larger civilian-led Department of the Air Force.

NASA and the Space Force do different things, just like NASA and the Air Force do different things.

NASA’s budget, part of a $1.7 trillion government spending bill that still needs to be voted on by Congress, is 5.6 percent more than last year's budget. It falls short of the $26 billion requested by the White House. For the first time NASA's budget is smaller than the $26.3 billion dollar budget for the Space Force.
Corbulo2526 OP t1_j1jwnpr wrote
The bill provides $26.3 billion for the U.S. Space Force, which is nearly $1.7 billion more than the Pentagon requested and more than NASA's $25.4 billion budget.

Just because a uniform is dark blue, military, and has a high collar doesn't make it fascist.

The Russian Space Forces and Chinese People's Liberation Army Strategic Support Force both exist.

I'm it was a proposal between a Democrat and Republican in Congress. Hardly "low IQ caveman mindset."
