gps isnt satellite based .. its ground based through triangulation of cell towers . lol
I do… I want the U.S to be dominant up there and ready to take out any country.
I know China will take advantage of any situation try to destroy US 🇺🇸.
We need to be the most powerful country in the world.
The truth is China, Iran, Russia, NK all our #1 enemy… our freedom/ safety / Democracy will be safe if our enemies future is obsolete.
Do we have Phasers or just lazers?
So why continúe sending arms with the porpose to destroy Rusia.
Must stop sending arms to Ucrane.
Otherwise we are going to be destroy .
Es que no entienden? Para donde se va tantísimo dinero 💰????????

Glad this war is getting underway, the nuclear that breaks window 500 miles away, Europe is lining up the sacrifice of millions of men, Putin is not sacrificing any men, when the big war starts, ww3 will be straight nuclear, Putin made it clear, the quicker we start the quicker it will be over, then we can rebuild,
Vice President Harris is a sock puppet
tom, do you have to shout?
Keep earthly issues on earth.
Lies.. lies… lies….lies
If it was on tv or in a movie its a dam lie. Wait ..soon we all see reality
you think usa that life on weapons dont have weapons in space
Rods from God
Why? 🤔💭
Funny how much you guys ragged on it and made fun of a very serious thing!
Who controls Space? Controls the world which we live in! So yes there might be space wars, United States is 100 years ahead of the world.
Well i guess where going to have to developed a Space Magnetic! To drag around up there! and return it to them 🤣🤣
The scenario changed today – Russia announced they will stop working with NASA, 26 July 2022
This is not going to end well for humanity.
Why did the man call the other nations “actors”? Did they just yell on themselves!? Lol
Do you honestly think Russia is concerned or worried about killing a couple of their own Cosmonauts???????? There’s a hundred more ready to take their place.
Cannot get to _SPACE_ LOL don’t believe this b.s.
Peope, in their right minds, don’t want WARS in the new millenium, whether _physically_ on Earth or _illusory_ in ‘space.’ LOL *Stop making WAR appealing to young immatured minds.*
I can see Trelona and her Space Cantata going to battle in their Red Teslas LOL
What a farcical snake oiling appeal to government to give away more taxpayer’s money
I feel like our satelites are in good hands with Joe Biden and Kamala at the wheel…. 🙂 Hahahahahahaha
AM 53, ALWAYS BEEN AN ATHLETE, IF IT COMES TO FIGHT AND DEFEND THIS COUNTRY. I’LL THROW DOWN ANY TIME. I LOVE MY UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Listen…our tech…doesn’t hold a candle to…et warfare….we better wory about earthy problems….among country’s earthly issues….and space issues as a planet……
Space issues have always been around…..no mater what you call it….or how it’s classified…a new spin on an old problem
Space wars…won’t start between country’s….if it does their won’t be an end…..that’s the real issue…..
Interesting !!Wow I’m impressed
russia china dont give a dam when is every one gonna realize this
I wish to make the largest most important sculpture on the planet to pay respect to every kid that has lost their lives in school shootings. Please help spread my mission and goals..
Why is there laws in space space is nobodys lol
Everything runs off of satellite take out the satellites 🛰 how will our missiles fly good way to start the war off no communication
Sorry US but we’re already behind the learning curve here China and Russia know that
Would this be considered WORLD WAR 3 (WW3) OR moon war 1 (MW1)?
I love America
I like how this video says we are “prepping for conflict that no one wants” in it’s introduction, if we’re prepping for some sort of conflict doesn’t that mean someone wants a conflict in space that we should be concerned about. If someone doesn’t potentially want conflicts then why would we be prepping for one?
This is the beginning of man’s future battlefield
Time to deal with China before it’s too late
How stupid can the US be
We are not doing enough to deal with China and it’s aggressive behaviour!!
We must dominate space and the future it is paramount and it’s time to deal with China !!
We must get out of any economic debt to China or we are done !!!
Space force is a joke 😂
Hey nbc, in the description for this video you wrote,.
“…..America’s constellation of satellites in
Earth orbit – now threatened by hostile,
armed Russian and Chinese spacecraft.”
For the last 4 years, you and all the other liberals have been making fun of President Trump for implementing the space force. Now you have the nerve to write this once again proving that President Trump was right.
Free satellite for world 🌎? Lies 🤣 spying on the world, now Russia it’s on top every one panics , LMAO 😂… According with United States, Russian invade , Russia hacking, Russia is evil always media and technology to manipulate the ppl . What about the united states is so innocent 😇?????? Let’s see 850+ military bases , invade thousands of countries over the years and lying when using excuses to rob natural resources gold silver oil titanium and more more ….. And creates genocide on innocent people babies and complete families.
Why did it take the ‘Yanks’ over Three Years before they came into WW1 ?
The Bible say…the meek shall inherit the earth! That’s because all those violent persons will have done away with each other!
A peaceful space without a peaceful earth is illogical, I guess.
Indeed, the turbulence in space begins on the planet EARTH. Hence, in deed the strategies to maintain a peaceful should be collectively applied on earth as well. Therefore, the role of the “SPACE FORCE# should include these concepts under the leadership of the most powerful country in the world 🌎. It may require global synergy. Congrat to the new space contingent. It
One simple question… How capable are THOSE trucks in ‘less than ideal’ road conditions?! 🤔
Very informative condensed news video about the US Space Force… However, I agree with the interviewed US Congressman. The US, via the US Space Force, needs to build offensive capabilities and have a more offensive than defensive policy, as the adversaries of the US and the West (i.e. China and Russia) do not care about International Laws, past mutual agreements and yesterday’s hand shakes. China and Russia will do what’s best for them no matter what that means to the rest of the world (since its their plan to subjugate the world anyway in a new world order that they control). Therefore, the US and the West must prepare for a confrontation in all capabilities and measures. The use of space in a war is not a matter of “if”, it’s a matter of “when”.
@Marina Clara Sanchez Suarez LOL!!! 😆
Wow, this is the world war that is going to happen in space.
I hope that there is a star ship being built or already built.
Whoever has a lunar based defense system on the far side of the moon controls who can land there, it takes three orbits to land on the moon. The far side cannot be struck directly from an Earth based laser. A lunar weapons system can deny access. You have to wonder who has them there now.
Republican is right. Kamala WRONG.
US must increase its space ofensive capability and keep Up and overtake chinese by the right
And today guess what Russia announced it is leaving the international space station for good…
US opens their mouths. Just hypocrites comes out
Share food problem solved ok bye
Fake news
US GPS accurate to a foot and half. Did NBC just prove that 2000 Mules was absolutely true and that democrat lies of it not being accurate enough was just that, lies?
Holy crap! Are you serious!?!
Videos like these that doesn’t tell the whole story is what we call propaganda. What’s missing here in this videos is letting the audience know that the US was the one that first destroyed our own satellite in 2008 which peaked Russia and china’s interest in achieving the same capability, just in case.
SMH they shouldn’t be given out info about what the USA is doin …
The USA should keep them guessing…
Then if they start acting a fool…. We can say surprise B***h’s…
So they are guardians, of the galaxy? 😀
Serious side, they are working against very real threats.
Escape from L.A.??
Big problems with instant satellite connections
There are NO aliens, just demonic entities. Don’t be fooled
You can only fight fair in a contest where everyone knows and obey the rules. Russia and China will not obey the rules, that’s when you too fight dirty. It is stupid for US to play by the rules and get caught with our pants down. But the US do not play by the rules, they only saw they do. The US dominate space and do not let these videos deceive you. But that being said we Americans need to stop worrying about its blacks and other minority citizens and have more concern about our enemies abroad.
And yes VP Harris they are test to test the US ability.
Only military propaganda
It’s sad but inevitable…human nature is what it is. We have 3 superpowers, all allied with powerful support countries. They are driven by the quest for power via economics, geopolitics n military might to control resources, shipping lanes n strategic military positions. Space will be no different…you name it, we will come up with a way to fight over it…human nature is what it is
Its inevitable 🤷♂️
Space force 💪
There is no such place as “cislunar,” it’s “cislunar space.”
Knock out all the satellites at once and let’s start over
Just what Trump has predicted and now they wake up, now they behind China.
Suckers.
Proud on Russian and Chinese technology.
Of course we have capabilities in Space.
We’ve had our own technology on the Moon decades before China.
Mars as well.
The ET”s have advanced, otherworldly technology, they stay around here and inhabit the Solar System.
China or Russia, with ten other countries in on it, can shut us down in a snap. They are waiting patiently. Not in their best interest at the moment.
If President Trump had lost, we’d be 4 years into the future.
8+ years of planning and then Trump’s election. 8+4 years of planning to make good on those promises
ENTER COVID!
made by “foreign (in a nutshell) investors” from previous administrations Pay 2 Play deal.
No turning back now.
The plan to take down America is well on the way.
2 kinds of people inhabit the Earth; The Forgiven and the others.
Space has always been seen as the future destination of survival in the world of technology and in any purpose of humanity needs..🚀🛰 there for conquering space or the moon by other nations for a defensive purpose will for sure be the destruction of planet earth ..world leader should focus on protecting the earth from any possible threat from space..🌎
hmm US Space Force seems very feminine – just saying… not sexist, just saying
Let’s hope the “We’ll be ready!” Will not turn out to be like the one for covid!
i hate you telling anyone anything about our defenses
this reporter needs to shut up!
i hope he gets in trouble from the military
We should invent a satellite that squirts goo onto their satellites. Or maybe wraps an it with black plastic. Seems to me that shutting down something that CANT hide is easy. I could even attach a small device to jet it out of orbit.
And what about sattelits with missil launching capabilities
The liberal media had a good laugh when Trump launched the Space Force! Once again, Trump was ahead of the curve!!!
What we can do he says this is what they want to see and no that’s why they’re playing chicken because they want to know more secrets that we have up there and we shouldn’t play into their hands by telling them anything about are true capabilities in space for defensive and offensive purposes too many whistleblowers have talked about these things only to be made a fool out of by our government to discredit them no that’s what they one two really know so they can make countermeasures
Do you notice they don’t discuss Nano drones that we said if all are satellites were knocked down we could launch by aircraft I don’t know what kind? They are talking about but that hundreds of Nano satellites within an hour to replace everything we have that nothing would change was one statement given when the threat was first noticed that is what the space force announced and that some satellites systems can take care of themselves?
Make a fighter for space dont talk about it be about it
Go USA! Stand your ground proudly! Build our defensive and offense capabilities! We don’t want war but to maintain peace we must be prepared for war! Strength on the field and superior technology sends an effective message. Once there is aggression, boundary lines have to be drawn to avoid further conflicts.
If a country targeted “a lot” of satellites 🛰 the resultant multi leveled debris feild could MASSIVELY AFFECT GLOBAL COMMUNICATION and potentially END all space travel..
The EVIL & DESIRE for ENDLESS Wars by Males & a few Females is SUICIDAL ! They CANNOT take CARE of Earth/Moon ALLAAH loaned us, NOR SPEND Time /$$$ to END :VIOLENCE , Poverty, Homelessness , RISING prices of Food-Housing -Med.Care , POLLUTION, etc……!
Already POLLUTED Outer Space Around EARTH & DUMPING Junk on The Moon /MARS ! 👎🏼👎🏾😡😥 !
ONLY ALLAAH can END this !
