President Trump unveils the Space Force logo, which has absolutely no similarities to the Star Trek Starfleet Command logo

Until there's a fundamental basis with which to project power, this branch is as useless as a navy without boats, an air force with no planes, or an army without guns.
Just wheel out the anti-grav prototypes already, even if they do give ball-cancer to every town they fly over.

I honestly don't get what the outfit is for at all, no one would be wearing that in space. Are they even going to space? whats the point of any of this again?
That's the uniform for the Space Force staff in land. They will move with other military staff and therefore need that uniform.
I don't think the US is gonna be putting any military in actual space anytime soon. So while yeah, that uniform at first seems hilarious for the space force, it kinda makes sense. It's about the only thing that makes sense out of all this ordeal.
Can the next Dem get rid of this "branch"? Its the most pathetic money sucking thing in the government.
Small government party my ass.

This is certainly confusing, the U.S. Space Force is stated to be "the newest branch of the Armed Forces – like the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines":
However, the careers link on the U.S. Space Force page brings you to career listings for space on the U.S. Air Force website:

... can Paramount sue? It's literally their logo.
Things being named after/inspired by Star Trek used to be fun until the people doing it were the antithesis of what Trek stands for.
Just dump its funding into NASA.

No one in the Space Force is intended to go to space. Trump isn't making space marines here.
The uniform is the same camo pattern as the other branches because it would be wasteful and stupid to create a new uniform for a branch that is basically just a different unit in the Air Force.
Seems fairly apt for this useless incompetent administration that they'd copy something that has existed for 60 years but make a worse version of it.
I love to dunk on Trump Admin stupidity as much as everyone else, but to be fair, you have to admit the Starfleet logo drew at least some inspiration from the NASA logo.
The Air Force is just biding its time waiting for Trump to go away. They know Space Force isn't sticking around long term. If anything it will be a 150 billion dollars that could have been used in more useful things blown to satisfy Trumps ego. Navy struggles to build replacement Destroyers etc. for 40+ year old ships due to funds but we can blow all this on Space force
Oh god... The "Space" at the bottom is hurting my brain..I think the Star Trek connection is a bit of a stretch. Air Force Space Command has been using this logo for a long time.
"Look, it's a fucking stupid idea but we're just renaming Space Command and acting like it's a new branch because the dumbass CiC is obsessed. Just play along"
That's what those two question and answers on the site read like.
Our government is ripping off science fiction logos for an overplayed renaming ceremony for a division in one branch of the military, all to stroke the ego of an idiot who will probably be dead within the next 10 years.
It's embarrassing and unprofessional.
100% of the people involved will be based on earth for the foreseeable future. Even once they eventually put some people in orbit on a semi permanent basis, 99.999% of the personnel will be on the ground or sea. The air force and navy both also have camo uniforms.
You used to have the animated avatar version of that dude from that kitchen nightmare's episode of the crazy abc lady right?
Thats a basic Army/Air Force uniform with Space Force patches.
However it will also eventually be a personally representative look
like when the Army picked a pos camo and wanted it as their visual identity
The US Marines for example backed out of uniform tests and made their choice when their choice was chosen as one of the better options they tried to legally block the US Army from using it.
Give it time! The Star Command we're familiar with has presumably been established for quite a while to be able to have intergalactic starships. This is just the first version of that logo and over time it'll be redesigned and modernized until it becomes the one from the show AKA recordings of our actual future sent back through time for us to learn from.

I guess it does look a bit like a combo of those 2 logos.
Hahaha...Tim burned your shit you dumb orange fucker!
Great, let's jump start an arms race in space. He doesn't know shit dude. Fucker saw a clip of Starship Troopers and got a boner
Earth camo for the space force? Makes sense.
Are the Space Force forces going to be engaging in land action at all though? I can't think of a situation where they would.
Yeah, it does look similar to the Star Fleet logo, but that style of "arrow" has been on a lot of Air Force stuff for a few decades. The old Maintenance occupational badge that I wore had an eagle holding a bomb in one talon and that exact style of arrow or chevron (never knew what it was or represented) in the other talon, and I think that badge was created in the early 90's.
It's still a completely unnecessary logo for a completely unnecessary new branch though. The Air Force was doing pretty well handling space shit without needing to spin Space Command off into its own thing. What a waste of money...
