Recently, President Trump gave an executive order for the establishment of a space force in space.

This decision, has being hailed by some hawks in the US political spectrum, as a welcomed development, while others, have viewed it, as another sign of US's dominance in the world.

So, how would this work?
Basically, there'd be a replication of what the US army is on earth.

It would have their own budgetary allocations, as her counterpart on earth, and hopefully, a Secretary of Space.

Other none space countries are at the mercies of the space '5s(USA, Russia, China, India, and Japan).

PS: President Nixon has proposed a similar force before (similar to the star trek movies).

MARSLANDING TODAY.
If you're a fan of space explorations, today, NASA's insight spacecraft blazes into Mar's atmosphere at 12,300mph, and slows down to just 5mph in less than 7min, before touching down on the surface.

You can watch the event live on;

Being part of a club of countries that have dared space missions before, isn't an easy tasks.

Countries like the USA, Russia, Japan, and China,have spent billions of dollars in space explorations, with the USA being at the forefront, since the 60s.

Just this year alone, there has being several failed space missions to the moon. Notable amongst them was the Israeli( failed Beresheet spacecraft that crashed), and India's recent crash on the surface of the moon of it's spacecraft just some few kilometers before landing.

Space missions are not a kids play. It calls for huge investments, in R/R, human resources, and a dedicated budget to finance such missions.

There seems to be some form of similarities between the failures of both space missions.

1. Both spacecrafts crashed just few kilometers before landing on the moon.

2. Both crashed landed, because there were a lost communication signals the vehicles, and the control rooms down on earth.

Major startling difference between both failures was that,
1. Israel's space mission to the moon was privately funded, with some support from Israeli aero companies.
It was Israel's first stint to the moon.
The first ever by a private company.

2. India's space mission was state owned, and got a 100% of state funding and support.




Lessons from this failed launches?
Its just a matter of time before you catch up with those in a league.

If its possible, implement different strategies to achieve your set target.

Giving up in this race, is not an option.

It looks like familiar.
Reagan and his star war were a big time racket and a distraction.
He spent billions of dollars feeding the war industry when cocaine was destroying impoverished inner city neighborhoods in America.
