Budget looks minimal
https://www.defensenews.com/smr/fede...organizations/
The U.S. Defense Department’s fiscal 2020 budget asks for $306 million to overhaul its space enterprise: standing up the headquarters of the Space Force, establishing U.S. Space Command and creating a Space Development Agency geared toward rapidly acquiring cutting-edge space technology.
Of those three organizations, it’s the Space Development Agency that is projected to be the most expensive effort, costing $149.8 million in new funding that cannot be transferred from other parts of the budget.
Targeting others and defending their own satellites? or is that AF responsiblity

Hopefully when the new President comes in, Space force as a separate branch will go away. And it will become a Joint Command led by USAF like it should be

Pence Says U.S. Space Force Members Will Be Called 'Guardians'
Published on 18 December 2020
The Trump administration celebrated the first birthday of the U.S. Space Force on Friday by announcing that its members will be known as "guardians."
Vice President Mike Pence made the announcement at a celebratory event tracing the development of the newest branch of the military over the past year.
"It is my honor, on behalf of the president of the United States, to announce that henceforth the men and women of the United States Space Force will be known as guardians," Pence said. "Soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and guardians will be defending our nation for generations to come."
President-elect Joe Biden has yet to reveal his plans for the Space Force in the next administration.

There was no need for a Space Force to begin with....a separate combatant command...okay we can have that discussion but not it's own branch.
I expect to see this get rescinded before too long. It is a wasteful redundancy.“Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty to government, when it deserves it.”
