Introduction

Space Force is an American comedy web television series looking at the people tasked with creating a sixth branch of the armed services: The Space Force.

Outline

Air Force Lieutenant General Mark Naird is promoted to full four-star general and is hoping to take over as the Chief of Staff of the Air Force. However, he is appointed as the first Chief of Operations of the newest United States military branch: the United States Space Force.

His family, including daughter Erin and wife Maggie, are relocated to Colorado.

One year later, the Space Force is about to launch a new satellite called Epsilon 6 into orbit. The Space Force is disorganised and fledgling, Mark is constantly bombarded by obstacles and adversaries, Erin detests her new home, and Maggie is now in prison.

Against the advice of his advisors and scientists, including Space Force scientist Dr. Adrian Mallory, Mark orders the launch of Epsilon 6. Despite initial concerns, and in front of a delegation of prominent members of Congress, Epsilon 6 successfully reaches orbit.

Later that night, as Mark and Adrian celebrate, Mark, observing Epsilon 6 through a telescope, sees a Chinese satellite clip the solar panels, the satellite’s only power source, putting Epsilon 6 in jeopardy.
