Internet Thinks Donald Trump is Starting Real-Life Guardians of the Galaxy

Donald Trump says he supports the idea of creating a Space Force as a co-equal branch of the military in order to project US dominance beyond the reaches of Earth's gravity.

As the National Space Council convenes in Washington, the president framed space as a national security issue, saying he does not want "China and Russian Federation and other countries leading us".

The president said the new force would be part of his administration's efforts to return "American dominance" to space, as he vowed to send new missions to the moon and eventually to Mars.

On Monday, the President announced the USA will establish a "Space Force" as a way for the United States to exercise extraterrestrial dominance, according to Reuters. While the new initiative's role in future military operations remains unclear, Trump said the program would seek to re-establish the U.S.as a global leader in space technology.

One Twitter user doesn't really see the need for Donald Trump's Space Force and says, "Who needs Space Force when we already have the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy?".

"Space is a war-fighting domain, just like the land, air, and sea", Trump said in March.

Scott Pace, the executive secretary of the National Space Council, offered more details in an email about the directive and how it would be budgeted.

Officials say an adult man was taken to an area hospital after a shooting, but did not confirm the identity of the victim. The alleged shooters are said to have escaped the scene in a Dodge Journey , Chevrolet Tahoe, and Jeep Grand Cherokee .

"Space is a war fighting domain, so it is vital that our military maintains its dominance and competitive advantage in that domain", one unnamed USA defense official told CNN.

Meanwhile, nearly every other personnel and family readiness policy would be specific to the space force and open to new development.

The president spoke earlier this year of his plans for a "space force" and explained his thinking behind it, saying: "I was saying it the other day because we're doing a tremendous amount of work in space".

Trump declared that America was "first in flight, first to the Moon", and "will always be first in space". "I can imagine the only Space Force being Trump's fanfic Guardians of the Galaxy". First, the move must receive approval from Congress, which is sure to be split on the idea - and its cost.

The treaty specifies that no weapons of mass destruction be stationed in orbit or on any celestial body.

A mission to Mars will happen "very quickly", possibly because "rich guys" like rockets, the president said. "And we are seriously thinking of the Space Force". "A big unknown is what you do with the NRO and other agencies that do space things", Harrison noted when I asked him during a phone call today.

Space Policy Directive - 3 is primarily focused on satellite traffic management and mitigating debris in space.
