Description
With increasing threats and congestion in orbit, the US #SpaceForce needs to take full advantage of commercially available data and services to better characterize objects in #space. But are they doing enough? A new report by the #Government Accountability Office suggests that the Space Force should integrate commercial data into their operational systems to enhance their important #nationalsecurity mission. Will the government's continued uncertainty about funding cause stagnation in the fielding of commercial capabilities for the growing #SSA industry? The Space Force is taking a step in the right direction by requesting funding to buy commercial data.
