With the introduction of the new uniforms of the US Space Force, the new logo of the newly created branch of the US Armed Forces has also come to light. And it has not disappointed: the logo is inspired by that of Starfleet from Star Trek. How are they alike?
Both share many elements: the delta shape, the starry background … Why did they make it so similar? Is it a tribute?
The new Space Force logo is a combination of the old Air Force Space Command logo and the NASA logo. And it is not surprising because "during the last 50 years, Star Trek has influenced scientists, engineers and even astronauts to reach beyond their potential," according to a NASA article. Therefore, this decision should not surprise us, which is a deliberate tribute to an innovative television program that went beyond what anyone ever imagined. Star Trek inspired many people with its vision of humanity by overcoming their old disputes and working together.
Trump officially launched the United States Space Force in December when he signed the $ 738 billion National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2020, which aims to safeguard U.S. assets and interests in space.
