Alabama Republican and US House Strategic Forces Subcommittee Chairman Mike Rogers agrees with Captain Kirk that space is indeed the final frontier. He is now planning to initiate a major reorganization on how the US government manages its space operations. The changes may lead to disruptive outcomes, but ultimately beneficial to the country.

Space reorganization on US government management's

According to Rogers, the reorganization is going to be very disruptive, especially that a lot of people don't like change, Defense News reported. They will pour in substantial effort on these improvements, which is why they are taking their time, he said. Rogers, along with Tennessee Democrat Rep. Jim Cooper has been discussing a 2015 report made by the Government Accountability Office that suggests creating corrections on space capabilities.

According to Rogers, they may come up with an executive action with the Donald Trump administration to initiate the needed reorganization. If not, the changes could be done through the National Defense Authorization Act, which will be held next year. This is the annual defense policy bill of the House Armed Services Committee.

One of the major reasons why Rogers came up with the idea to reorganize America's space capabilities are his frustration over the reports from GAO stating that it takes up to eight years for the country to launch space projects.

Threat of China Anti-Satellite Missile

While America plans to reorganize their space capabilities, China is reportedly planning a test flight on its new anti-satellite missile called the Dong Neng-3, Free Beacon reported.

According to China military affairs specialist and International Assessment and Strategy Center senior fellow, Richard Fisher, the anti-satellite missile can reach up to over 18,000 miles into space. It means the Dong Neng-3 has the capability to hit US surveillance satellites. It seems like this is the only asymmetric warfare weapon powerful enough to stop the progress that Rogers is planning for.
