How the UK Space Command is working with Space Force

Space has become an integral part of warfighting. Similar to the creation of the U.S. Space Force, the United Kingdom created the UK Space Command. The commander, Air Vice-Marshal Paul Godfrey, is in Washington, D.C. for meetings with senior defense leaders.

• Godfrey told Government Matters the command was created last year and started with around 400 people who had already been doing space-related work.
• The UK Space Command is working with the U.S. military with the main goal of adding value, he said.
• Godfrey signed a memorandum of understanding with U.S. Space Command in April and had combined talks last week to look at future plans and integration.
