    The way the contract process worked, everyone knew they couldn't beat SpaceX, but they could propose any price and NASA would agree to the 2nd lowest no matter how high

    Speaking of Space and Science and @CaptAmerica , how big of an eye roll did you make when you heard the 2020 NDAA signed yesterday (by the House) contained the foundation of Space Force? (We discussed your opinions exhaustively this summer ;)). At least they just made it a Dept of the Air Force, similar to USMC to the Navy.

    You mean that the whole thing is [REDACTED] and [removed to keep me from getting banhammered until February]? They already had a management and funding structure, anything else is more chiefs and even less indians.
    No one is ready for Cyber Force.

    Especially Cyber Force.

    Already in it I believe.

    Whenever someone starts to get out of hand my spings start tingling. NRO/NGA? Good thing they're getting dragged into Space Force too...but too bad they're the most nonner BS missions in space :jerkoff:

    Let me know when they finally get a mission that isn't considered a support function :deadhorse:

    Sounds like space force is going to be entirely uniformed services, and the 3 letter gang stays separate like it is now. But who knows.

    Considering we haven't made good on "Rods from God" isn't all space operations currently "support"? I honestly am clueless, wasn't my forte.
