The Null Device

Under Bush, U.S. to militarise space; which may see the US Air Force expand its mission to space-based combat, or the creation of a US Space Force. Nuclear-armed orbital battle stations and jumbo cosmospheres, here we come.

(Mind you, it's possible that the militarisation of space may be seen by future historians as the start of humanity seriously venturing off the surface of Earth. Sad fact is, there's nothing like war or inter-tribal conflict to motivate human endeavour. Perhaps it's the age-old club-the-rival-caveman's-brains-in instinct.)
