The Space Force is the newest branch of the U.S. military. Tasked with protecting U.S. interests in space, these service members need the most advanced technology available to perform their jobs. Space Force guardians use computers to control satellites orbiting Earth miles above the planet's surface. These members of the Space Force also train to defend these important devices from attacks in case another nation tries to disable them. Because technology is always changing, the Space Force is always developing new tools, so guardians will be ready to face whatever challenges come their way. Part of The U.S. Space Force series, Technology of the U.S. Space Force discusses the tools and training that help this military branch perform its important work.
