According to Reuters on Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump said he was ordering the creation of a sixth branch of the military to focus on space, a move critics said could harm the Air Force. Before a meeting of his National Space Council, Trump said “It is not enough to merely have an American presence in space. We must have American dominance in space." The idea of a Space Force has been raised before, by Trump and previous administrations, with proponents saying it would make the Pentagon more efficient.
