1
00:00:01,699 --> 00:00:04,449
(dramatic music)

2
00:00:13,070 --> 00:00:16,690
- Today space is essential,
not only to our way of life,

3
00:00:16,690 --> 00:00:19,190
it's absolutely critical
to the modern way of war.

4
00:00:21,180 --> 00:00:25,050
GPS, ATMs, cell phones, gas pumps,

5
00:00:25,050 --> 00:00:27,630
traffic lights, power
grids, guided missiles,

6
00:00:27,630 --> 00:00:30,683
surveillance, RPAs, ground combat control.

7
00:00:32,140 --> 00:00:34,940
There's no such thing as a
day without space operations.

8
00:00:35,980 --> 00:00:37,180
You just don't see them.

9
00:00:38,642 --> 00:00:40,900
Earth is only half the battle.

10
00:00:40,900 --> 00:00:43,830
Cyber attacks and jamming
of our satellites.

11
00:00:43,830 --> 00:00:47,000
Micro-satellites that can
create a debris field.

12
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,650
At 17,000 miles an hour,

13
00:00:48,650 --> 00:00:51,363
a piece of metal the size
of a coin can be weaponized.

14
00:00:54,290 --> 00:00:56,350
Now is the time for a military branch

15
00:00:56,350 --> 00:00:59,420
with a clear and singular focus on space.

16
00:00:59,420 --> 00:01:01,590
A military branch that
protects the hopes and dreams

17
00:01:01,590 --> 00:01:04,180
of America and our way of life.

18
00:01:04,180 --> 00:01:06,813
As the space domain becomes
more and more contested.

19
00:01:08,190 --> 00:01:09,973
It's time for another giant leap.

20
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,090
United States Space Force is being built

21
00:01:13,090 --> 00:01:14,030
from the brightest minds

22
00:01:14,030 --> 00:01:16,480
across the space operations
of the Air Force,

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,223
our joint services,
and the private sector.

24
00:01:20,130 --> 00:01:22,420
We aren't just getting
ready for the near future,

25
00:01:22,420 --> 00:01:24,470
we're getting ready for the 22nd century.

26
00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:27,750
When our enemies ask, what if?

27
00:01:27,750 --> 00:01:28,933
We will have an answer.

28
00:01:32,510 --> 00:01:34,180
When foreign powers can build bases

29
00:01:34,180 --> 00:01:36,180
on the dark side of the moon,

30
00:01:36,180 --> 00:01:38,430
when private companies are
inventing a new economy

31
00:01:38,430 --> 00:01:39,403
beyond our planet,

32
00:01:40,310 --> 00:01:42,960
we need to stay one step
ahead of the future.

33
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:45,163
The future is where we'll make history.

34
00:01:46,710 --> 00:01:49,580
We will fight in an
environment with no up or down,

35
00:01:49,580 --> 00:01:51,150
no left or right.

36
00:01:51,150 --> 00:01:52,500
Where there are no borders,

37
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:54,080
and nowhere to hide.

38
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,900
Our space force is defending our country.

39
00:01:56,900 --> 00:02:00,090
Here on Earth and wherever
our mission takes us.

40
00:02:00,090 --> 00:02:02,460
As commerce and exploration expand

41
00:02:02,460 --> 00:02:04,680
we will imagine the unimaginable.

42
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,910
Anticipate the inconceivable.

43
00:02:06,910 --> 00:02:08,573
And prepare for the impossible.

44
00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:12,660
We won't just think outside the box,

45
00:02:12,660 --> 00:02:14,410
we'll think outside the atmosphere.

46
00:02:15,630 --> 00:02:18,380
In one of the most challenging
environments ever known.

47
00:02:21,016 --> 00:02:24,266
(dramatic organ music)

48
00:02:26,859 --> 00:02:29,192
( silence)
