Bush Visits Vance AFB: President Bush dropped in with Air Force One at Vance AFB, Okla., on May 6, enroute to Oklahoma State University to deliver a commencement address. At Vance, some 300 servicemembers, civilians, and family members came out to greet the Commander in Chief. Among the official greeters were Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Lt. Gov. Mary Fallin, and Enid, Okla., Mayor Ernie Currier.
The Space Force is playing midwife to a new ecosystem of commercial satellite constellations providing alternatives to the service’s own Global Positioning Service from much closer to the Earth, making their signals more accurate and harder to jam.
