    Everything about Space Force just sounds like a really outlandish sci-fi RPG game. I find it impossible to take them seriously.

      Every time I hear it. I think of “zoltan” from galaxy quest and say it with that inflection.

    Maybe history shall repeat itself instead of the “little boats” that saved the BEF at Dunkirk. It will be the “little sats” that save someone else!

    I’m reminded of the drone “armada” kirk rounds up to face off against the romulans in Star Trek Strange New Worlds. (S1, E10 “A Quality of Mercy”)
