I've already made up my mind that if the Space Force starts opening up its doors to include combat arms within my lifetime, I'd be at the recruiting office in a heartbeat. It doesn't matter that knowing how I'd react, I'd probably be a random Red Shirt who'd have his back turned at the worst possible moment and say something ironic like "the coast is clear!" before getting eaten by something.

Then Senator Ted Cruz in a Senate hearing advocating the Space Force planted the ultimate idea in my head... Space Pirates. Sure, the memes were taken slightly out of context because he was referring to rogue nations attacking satellites and not the swashbuckling buccaneers we're thinking of. But is it a bad thing that kinda makes me want to join the Space Force even more?

It'll take far too long for us to make first contact with aliens yet it'll only take a few decades for space travel to be affordable enough for us to get down on some Firefly or Babylon 5-type action. We're counting on you, Elon Musk. Make this dream come true!


While we wait for the cold dark reality that the Space Force will probably be far less exciting in our lifetimes than pop culture expects, here are some memes.

"I don't know, Hanz, he said something about my mother being a hamster and my father smelling like elderberries." 

Fun fact: The insult from Monty Python was actually implying that King Arthur's mom reproduced fast like a small rodent and his father was a drunk who could only afford the lowest quality wine. The more you know!
