After Saturday’s launch was scrubbed, due to high winds from a tropical depression moving through the south, the spacecraft, attached to an Atlas 5 rocket, blasted off from […]
To boldly go where no man has gone… America’s newest military service now has its own flag. And if you are a fan of Star Trek, then it may look familiar. The U.S. military’s newest service unfurled its flag for the first time at the White House in the Oval Office and was presented to […]
In early March, Army Special Operations (ARSOF) troops and their families got the chance to talk to Colonel Andrew Morgan, an ARSOF medical officer and NASA Astronaut, and ask him about life in space. Col. Morgan is a qualified Special Forces Combat Diver, arguably one of the toughest ratings to achieve in the Army, and […]
As America waited breathlessly for the much anticipated new uniforms for the United States Space Force, the Twitterati were hard at work on social media. Everyone had different uniforms all picked out. Of course, the Star Trek and Star Wars uniforms for the Empire (the Resistance looked like a bunch of rag-tag dirtbags) were the […]
Earlier this week, NASA Astronaut Christina Koch broke the record for the longest time spent in space by any woman.

SpaceX’s next generation rocket, known as the Starship, may one day ferry passengers and cargo to and from distant locations like the Moon and Mars. But you can’t get to deep space without breaking a few eggs (or spaceships, as the case may be). During pressure testing operations on Wednesday, a test version of the […]
The Air Force’s X-37B is a Boeing-built unmanned spacecraft that bears a striking resemblance to the old Space Shuttle (despite being significantly smaller). Although the program itself is shrouded in secrecy, its long-term orbital missions often make the headlines, thanks in no small part to the decidedly un-secret sonic booms the platform creates over Florida […]
On Saturday night, approximately 70 special operators hailing from Delta Force’s A Squadron and the 75th Ranger Regiment stormed a compound in the Idlib Province of Northeast Syria, successfully neutralizing one of history’s most despotic leaders, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. The mission has been hailed as a complete success, with no American troops lost and one […]

SpaceX has once again released a video that sort of makes it seem like the science fiction of the 1950s had it right with its sleek, metallic rockets taking off and landing vertically on their fins. This time, with a groundbreaking test of a platform they’ve dubbed “Starhopper.” Starhopper is meant to serve as a […]
