No shit. The amount of great housing in the Springs with relatively easy access to Peterson AFB is incredible. Plus, the milder climate and insulated economy make it a place people want to stay. Winters aren’t nearly as bad as people imagine since it’s on the plains side of the Rockies.
"Military leaders decide having Space Command in a nuclear proof mountain is better than, like, literally anywhere else."
Space Command largely isn’t located in NORAD.
Shouldn't it be in space anyway?
Technically it’s in space and so is the earth
I'll allow it.
Can we change the name to Starfleet, though??
Not yet, because it would imply we already have a fleet of spacecraft (which are top secret), so it'd let Spot out of the bag.
That, and the military is already having recruitment issues.
They can’t afford to lose all of those redshirts to exploding consoles and transporter accidents.
Man, what did Spot do to deserve that kind of treatment?
No, this is clearly Stargate Command. It's even in the same place!
That will come after WW3...
Still can't get over how when they announced the uniforms for Space Force they used desert camo.
Does Tatooine have oil?
Like when the official Navy Working Unuform was blue camo. And now it has been replaced with... green camo. For all those times you need to evade visual detection by Chiefs making sure you're actually participating in field day.
