We have to anticipate in any future conflict that space will be contested.” -Honorable Heather A. Wilson, Secretary of the Air Force “Having worked commercial launch matters multiple times in my career, I have a good appreciation of how dynamic the industry is becoming and the need to evolve how we interact with them to meet our common goals." -General John Raymond, AFSPC Commander The future is coming at us fast … and we are doing what we can to shape it and be ready for it.
