    only 371 MPH? That seems painfully slow for a trip to the moon.

    For our military appreciation game this last weekend (that we graciously lost to Navy because we are cool like that), our band played the usual military mashup at halftime like they always do. Then they played the new Space Force theme. I was underwhelmed

    I mean the 2001 space odyssey theme is already right there. Why reinvent the wheel?

    USSF is under the Department of the Air Force, just like the USMC is under Department of the Navy; same reason why there isn't a Marine Academy football team.

    moon is 1/4 the size of earth - it has about as much surface area as the continent of asia
