President Trump’s creation of a space force military branch is a good idea. The High Frontier, as President Reagan called it, needs its frontier patrols like those of the old west. It is unlikely that space force patrols will encounter hostile aliens affiliated with the Democrat Party however they can scout for usable materials for Earth and help establish outposts where civilian ventures may find support.
In a way Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were Kit Carsons of their day. A space force probably will have numerous drone space vehicles with artificial intelligence and a variety of power modes such as nuclear reactors and ion drives in addition to electro-magnetic linear accelerators, laser beams reacting with the stern of ships and even chemical rockets such as Robert Goddard popularized and that continue to be used notably for launching nuclear warheads on Earth.
A space force with even a modest budget cut loose from Earth concerns and looking forward to actual space and planetary missions might be able to move ahead with pure space travel technology without concern about the friction of Earth.
