This has felt inevitable for years now..all the security council nations will have a big interest in this flavor of "security"

Jesus Christ. We (the United States) are a rabid animal.

We join China, Russia, India, Europe, Japan, UAE, etc in the rabbid animal club I guess.

And? At one time, the world was de-escalating the arms race. That needs to happen again, but as long as the right people die with money, I guess that makes it okay. Smh

It's not okay, it's unfortunately par for the course however and not getting par pits you behind.

Anyone interested in starting a military space community page? There's an increasing amount of news and it might be nice to separate it from scientific/civilian spaceflight.

I'm less interested in the military side of things, but would be happy to be an occasional poster or backup mod if someone else started a community. Do you have an instance in mind?
