: It’s not specifically a TIE fighter or X-Wing from the “Star
: Wars” series, but The Drive reported last week that Trump’s
: recently created Space Force is now in charge of the
: experimental X-37B spacecraft. A craft that was prior in
: the ownership of the Air Force, which should turn many
: heads.

: The unit is also precariously known as Delta 9, according to
: the service. Military.com reports: Space Operations Command
: was activated last month during a ceremony at Peterson Air
: Force Base, Colorado. Under the field commands are deltas
: and squadrons, according to the Space Force’s command
: hierarchy.

: Delta 9’s Detachment 1 “oversees operations of the X-37B
: Orbital Test Vehicle, an experimental program designed to
: demonstrate technologies for a reliable, reusable, unmanned
: space test platform for the U.S. Space Force,” according to
: the unit’s fact sheet.

: Delta 9 consists of three active-duty squadrons headquartered
: at Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado: 1st Space Operations
: Squadron, 3rd Space Operations Squadron and 750th
: Operations Support Squadron, along with Detachment 1. The
: three squadrons conduct “protect-and-defend operations from
: space and provide response options to deter and defeat
: adversary threats in space,” according to the chart.

: It’s in this Delta group that the X-37B will be used, for what
: purpose exactly is unknown. But, according to the document,
: it states that Delta 9 will be responsible for “Orbital
: Warfare.” TMU previously reported that Johns Hopkins
: University political scientist Daniel Deudney warned that
: “space could end up controlled by a totalitarian empire.”

: Nations including China and Russia are already beginning to
: weaponize space with energy weapons and anti-satellite
: missiles. That’s according to the Pentagon last year in a
: report in CNBC.

: The U.S. is also involved in the weaponization of space and a
: U.S. Air Force commander has even previously proclaimed
: that space weapons should be used against ISIS without
: expanding on how.

: “If we want to be more agile then the reality is we are going
: to have to push decision authority down to some lower
: levels in certain areas the big question that we’ve got to
: wrestle with … is the authorities to operate in cyber and
: space,” General David Goldfein, the Air Force chief of
: staff, told USA TODAY.

: This is despite such actions being forbidden under the United
: Nations’ Outer Space Treaty established in 1967, for any
: nation to weaponize space. Additionally, the “Space
: Preservation Treaty”, in 2005, states that countries won’t
: seek to weaponize space.

: Deudney’s book lays out six threats to humanity, with the most
: important being the military use of equipment needed to
: terraform other worlds. Deudney concludes, according to The
: Space Review‘s analysis of his book, that we should abandon
: any hope of settling space until peace on Earth is achieved
: and we can explore responsibly.
