The US is launching a Space Force and the reactions are out of this world – the funniest 37
When Donald Trump announced plans to create a Space Force, he got this reaction from Buzz Aldrin, the second man to walk on the Moon.
Yesterday, the world was given confirmation of the project, which will be up and running within two years.

With typical restraint and maturity, Trump reacted like this.
Space Force all the way!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 9, 2018
Needless to say, the internet had a lot to say on the matter.
