Star Trek changed cannon a bit during its run. Like spock having some emotions in the pilot and not being the 1st officer. Kirk's middle initial was R, then changed to T sometime later.

The theory is, that money given to space force will be used for space things. If you gave it to the air force, then space force money might be spent on air force things.

I'd rather they fix the procurement process and how contracts are awarded and administrated, but at this point I don't see how it is even possible.

I have yet to understand why we needed a whole new branch and all the administrative overhead and whatnot instead of just telling the AF and Navy that since they can't work together on space, AF gets it.

Except Trump's ego.

But what the hell, it's just money and if I were still a tax paying productive member of society, that might mean something to me.

you know this space force was created so in 20 years they can say there is a threat from an alien life force and together with elon musk they can save us and bring peace to jerusalem in the process

we couldn't save a crew of  a space shuttle when we had another space shuttle we could of launched to get the crew

Tony Nelson was AF, an Astronaut and a master we don't need another division on the books

Wait, didn't they reveal this one as the official logo not to long ago or is the one in the OP for their uniforms?

Yeah, the one in your pictures is the seal for their branch within the Department of the Air Force. The one in the OP is the logo. I think the idea is that it would be used more for marketing and recruiting purposes.

For instance the Department of the Army has this seal:

and this is the current US Army logo:
