"We are swiftly evolving to a SATCOM ecosystem that makes no
distinction between commercial and military; one that views it all as
DoD SATCOM." -

For those of us that still retain more of an international outlook,
the above is kind of chilling. I remember when we moved the orbit of
"space station freedom" to bring the Russians in, I remember when we
seemed to want to explore space, "for all mankind.", and boldly go
(with an international crew), where no man (or woman), had gone
before.

It also seems like a pretty accurate assessment. With the present day
USA lock on rapid launch and reuse by spacex, and thousands of LEO
sats providing communications across the globe, out of the darkness,
the USA has achieved an enormous lead in near-space dominance that
looks to only grow wider in the next decade.

I pray we use it wisely.
