Here is a slideshow of our AFSPC 2010 OAY nominees as they take in the sights of Colorado Springs, Colo. and the local military installations. These Airmen represent the outstanding performers from around the command who demonstrated extraordinary leadership, job performance, community involvement and achievements.

Memorial Day marks the start of the annual Critical Days of Summer focus on safety. Each year, too many of the air force family are killed or injured during this time when there is traditionally seen an increased risk due to summer activities. This year the campaign starts with a family day on Friday, May 27, and ends on Tuesday, Sept. 6. Last summer, in AFSPC, there was 41 mishaps, one of which resulted in a fatality. AFSPC can do better: any fatality is one too many.

Space is a vital component to any military campaign. It is here that our military satellites orbit the earth, relaying critical and sometimes highly sensitive data to our ground forces. But space is becoming more and more cluttered with over 13000 man-made objects floating around our planet. Itʼs the responsibility of the US Air Forceʼs Joint Space Operations Center to track and monitor all of these objects to protect our assets in space. www.facebook.com www.airforce.com

This is a reenactment of one brave Airman's story of how she was sexually assaulted by another Airman and her decision to report it. The attack was investigated. Every case and outcome is different but in this case, our Airman knew the perpetrator wouldn't be able to do it again to anyone else in our Air Force. What harms one of us, affects all of us, and sexual assault has no place in our Air Force.

The US Air Force's first unmanned re-entry spacecraft landed at Vandenberg Air Force Base at 1:16 am PST today, Dec. 3. The X-37B, named Orbital Test Vehicle 1 (OTV-1), conducted on-orbit experiments for more than 220 days during its maiden voyage. It fired its orbital maneuver engine in low-earth orbit to perform an autonomous reentry before landing. The X-37B is the newest and most advanced re-entry spacecraft. Managed by the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office (AFRCO), the X-37B program performs risk reduction, experimentation and concept of operations development for reusable space vehicle technologies. "Today's landing culminates a successful mission based on close teamwork between the 30th Space Wing, Boeing and the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office," said Lt Col Troy Giese, X-37B program manager from the AFRCO. "We are very pleased that the program completed all the on-orbit objectives for the first mission." OTV-1's de-orbit and landing mark the transition from the on-orbit demonstration phase to a refurbishment phase for the program. The Air Force is preparing to launch the next X-37B, OTV-2, in Spring 2011 aboard an Atlas V booster.

The 45th Space Wing successfully launched a United Launch Alliance-built Delta IV-Heavy Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle from Space Launch Complex 37 at 5:58 pm (EST), carrying a classified National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) satellite. "The tremendous ULA, NRO and Air Force partnership once again delivered success," said Lt. Col. William Heuck, 5th Space Launch Squadron commander. The largest of the Delta IV family, the Heavy version features three Common Booster Cores mounted together. "The Delta IV rocket continues to evolve and mature with this fourth Delta IV-Heavy launch from the Cape," said Maj. Jeremy Geib, Delta IV Launch Operations Flight commander. "The team cut heavy launch processing time over 50 percent." "This mission helps to ensure that vital NRO resources will continue to bolster our national defense," said Brig. Gen. Ed Wilson, 45th Space Wing commander. "The spectacular evening launch showcases how the 45th assures access to the high frontier and supports global operations."

www.pax-americana.com www.amazon.com The prospect of Earth being ruled from space is no longer science-fiction. The dream of the original Dr. Strangelove, Wernher von Braun (from Nazi rocket-scientist to NASA director) has survived every US administration since WW2 and is coming to life. Today the technology exists to weaponize space, a massive American industry thrives, and nations are maneuvering for advantage. PAX AMERICANA tackles this pivotal moment. Are war machines already orbiting Earth? Can treaties keep space weapons-free? Must the World capitulate to one super-cop on the global beat? With startling archival footage and unprecedented access to US Air Force Space Command, this elegant, forceful documentary reveals the state of play through generals, space-policy analysts, politicians, diplomats, peace activists, and hawks. As if there weren't enough weapons here on earth, space has become the newest arena for countries around the globe to launch their struggle for supremacy. Denis Delestrac's film Pax Americana and the Weaponization of Space is packed full of some truly startling facts — everything from the "Rods of God" (space weapons that can launch from orbit) to the fact that fifty cents of every American tax dollar goes towards military spending. The astronomical costs of arming and policing the heavens (more than $200 billion) has largely fallen to the US Air Force, but with China and other nations challenging American supremacy, there is the potential for <b>...</b>

Luca Scantamburlo, an Italian UFO researcher, has published online an interview he conducted with a whistleblower claiming to be a former astronaut on a secret mission flown by NASA and the Air Force Space Command to the moon in August, 1976. The alleged mission was titled Apollo 20 and was a joint US and Soviet mission that followed by just over a year the joint Apollo-Soyuz 1975 mission. The Apollo 20 mission filmed the dark side of the moon where a very large extraterrestrial vehicle appeared to lie wrecked on the moon's surface. This 'wreckage' was first captured on film by Apollo 15 in 1971 which shows a moon panorama with what appears to be a large elliptical object on the moon's surface in an official NASA photo.

A Minotaur IV rocket as the twenty-sixth dedicated small launch vehicle mission named STP-S26 for the Department of Defense's Space Test Program that was launched at 4:24 pm, AST, Nov. 19 from Kodiak Launch Complex, LP1 in Kodiak, Alaska. A team of Air Force, NASA, contractor, and Alaska Aerospace Corporation representatives took part in STP's most complex mission in over 20 years. This mission will advance the state-of-the-art of space technologies which will enhance military operational capability and further our scientific knowledge across the DoD. The S26 mission is directed by the Department of Defense Space Test Program and implements a number of capabilities aimed at enabling responsive space access for small experimental satellites and payloads. S26 has seven distinct firsts. These include: The first flight of the STP Standard Interface Vehicle; the first use of Multi-Mission Satellite Operations Center, Ground System Architecture; the first flight of the Minotaur IV Multi-payload Adapter; first use of the Hydrazine Auxiliary Propulsion System to assist the Minotaur IV in obtaining a dual orbit; the first Minotaur IV cubesat deployment; the first cubesat deployed from a free flying EELV Secondary Payload Adapter satellite and the first launch of a Minotaur IV rocket from the Kodiak Launch Complex. This mission is also a significant milestone for STP because it includes the 500th DoD Space Experiment Review Board experiment flown. The DoD Space Experiment Review <b>...</b>
