Can we change the name to Starfleet, though??

[–] RojoSanIchiban@lemmy.world 26 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Not yet, because it would imply we already have a fleet of spacecraft (which are top secret), so it'd let Spot out of the bag.

[–] Zron@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago

That, and the military is already having recruitment issues.

They can’t afford to lose all of those redshirts to exploding consoles and transporter accidents.

Man, what did Spot do to deserve that kind of treatment?

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 14 points 9 months ago

Or United Navy Space Command (UNSC) which sounds way more professional than Space Force.

[–] grinde@programming.dev 9 points 9 months ago

No, this is clearly Stargate Command. It's even in the same place!

That will come after WW3...
