Trump and his administration seem to be doing everything in their power to leave behind an even more dangerous world for us and our future decesendents. I want to create this thread to spread awareness on the dangers of militarizing space.
Post any news about Trumps proposed plans for a new Space Force, as well as other countries who are doing their part in the space arms race.
I would like to leave a quote from JFKs "We choose to go the moon" speech
"We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained, and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. For space science, like nuclear science and all technology, has no conscience of its own. Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man, and only if the United States occupies a position of pre-eminence can we help decide whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace or a new terrifying theater of war. I do not say the we should or will go unprotected against the hostile misuse of space any more than we go unprotected against the hostile use of land or sea, but I do say that space can be explored and mastered without feeding the fires of war, without repeating the mistakes that man has made in extending his writ around this globe of ours."
