USSPACECOM and the USSF's primary area of responsibility is on military operations from the Karman Line to Geosynchronous Orbit. It is a congested domain and USSPACECOM is tasked with providing combat power and support in this dynamic environment while the USSF provides the preponderance of forces to accomplish those missions. While critical, this mission relegates the new Combatant Command and Service as supporting commands to terrestrial-based entities and missions. This cannot be their sole focus, especially as commercial companies and adversarial nations try to exploit the multi-trillion-dollar economy that awaits. USSPACECOM and the USSF must begin investing in new cislunar missions, the area located between the Earth and Moon, such as Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) and Satellite Communications (SATCOM) to support and defend the US government and commercial economic and scientific missions.
