About us
United States Space Command conducts operations in, from and to space to deter conflict, and, if necessary, defeat aggression, deliver space combat power for the Joint/Combined Force and defend U.S. vital interests with allies and partners. Commanded by U.S. Space Force Gen. Stephen N. Whiting, USSPACECOM is the warfighting combatant command that actively employs forces from the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Space Force to deliver space effects to joint and combined forces and protect and defend the space domain. Space superiority enables the Joint Force to rapidly transition from competition to conflict and prevail in a global, all-domain fight. From the ultimate high ground to the last tactical mile, USSPACECOM ensures there is never a day without space. U.S. Space Command’s Provisional Headquarters is located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The command has personnel and functions at Peterson, Schriever, Vandenberg Space Force Bases and Offutt Air Force Base. For information about USSPACECOM career opportunities, visit USAjobs.gov.

"I’m honored to be selected as Warrior of the Week and grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the USSPACECOM team.

Congratulations to Gen. Douglas A. Schiess as he assumes command of the United States Space Force, and to Gen. Chance Saltzman as he begins his retirement!
Today, Gen. Douglas A. Schiess was officially sworn in as the third Chief of Space Operations. “Every day, our potential adversaries advance their efforts to disrupt, degrade or destroy our space capabilities and they try to add to their own capacity to exploit space to their advantage. We cannot — we will not — let that happen,” he said. “As CSO, I want to be clear — our purpose is not confrontation, but deterrence, ensuring no adversary believes aggression against the United States will succeed.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/e57Y3btr
