This paper attempts to tackle the 'why.' and 'how.' questions facing the United States Air Force (USAF) vis-a-vis realizing full spacepower capabilities, i.e. not only improved force enhancement and space force support, but more importantly, space control and space force application. All this while dealing with daily, real-world issues like expanded world hotspots, aging operational fleets and infrastructure, dwindling manpower, and limited budgets. Calls are already 'out there' today for separating the missions of air and space into two different services, If this were to happen, the USAF would eventually lose its raison d'etre of global strategic attack to the nation's space force. This should not occur. Because of the very nature of its potential to apply similar, yet greater, effects into the battlespace, the 'space' of 'aerospace' belongs in the nation's aerospace force.
