US Space Force Releases First-Ever ‘Spacepower’ Military Doctrine

  We are for sure living in odd times as the U.S space force has printed a 64-page military doctrine called ‘Spacepower,’ showing it is continuing to be a torchbearer of foreign policy and colonialism to space. It marks America’s self-interest over future space exploration, which might accelerate space war, contrary to the decades-old global efforts to maintain space as an un-militarized domain. Attaining spacepower can generate and apply diplomatic, informational, military and economic power,” making it evident and straight as to why the U.S has such high interests in the said subject. In just under eight months after its creation, America’s newly built military service announced its first doctrine, featured in the U.S. Space Force’s Capstone Publication, entitled as spacepower . The SCP, which is the first brief of spacepower as a separate and distinguished form of military, serves as grounds upon which to build further doctrine as expanding challenges are continually addressed i...

This Is The Story Of How US Airforce F-15 Shot Down A Satellite In Space

Such a fantastic event only happened once in the history when a classified ASAT ( anti-satellite ) missile was fired towards an orbiting satellite. The development and advancement in anti-satellite arms were slowed down after the period of the cold war. In recent years its growth has boomed again, and the U.S, Russia, and China are fielding new bigger weapons. Pearson is the only pilot on Earth who executed a mission in space and that too with precision. Pearson achieved this on 13th September 1985, in the skies over the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California, the target satellite was US P78-1 Solwind. Pearson got promoted to the higher rank of Major General along with this remarkable achievement. It was the most massive missile ever equipped on an F-15 Eagle. Vought designed the weapon. It was based on the Short Range Attack Missile design, a nuclear-tipped missile used by the B-52 bomber. They added a second stage and modified the missile to ascend straight into space, it...

America’s Aircraft Carrier Is On Fire For Last Two Days And Might Never Return To Service

USS Bonhomme Richard, an aircraft carrier, caught fire on Sunday morning in San Diego, resulting in an internal explosion due to over-pressurization with heat. One hundred & sixty sailors were on board at the time of blast; no casualties reported. Navy and Federal firefighters are putting in their best efforts to get control over a situation that seemingly is getting worse. Authorities are not leaving any possible solution to save one of the few aircraft carriers, said Rear Admiral Sobeck. The situation is getting worse as the ship is tilting towards one side. Another alarming factor is only two decks distance left between fire source and fuel. An oil clean up crew is working for the installation of a containment boom in case of an oil spill. A million gallons of an oil spill is estimated in case the ship sinks at San Diego harbor. It could cause billions of dollars of environmental damage alongside the damage to a very worthy asset of the state. Firefighter helicopters alon...

These Are The Most Striking Images Of US Carrier Ship On Fire

Following the breaking out of the fire on Sunday morning, USS Bonhomme Richard – a ship at the San Diego Naval Base – is still burning. USS Bonhomme Richard is an amphibious assault ship. After the incident, it has witnessed federal and Navy firefighters join hands in order to tackle the fire, but it continues to rage on. As of 3:30 pm Pacific time July 13, a total of 59 persons, including 23 civilians and 36 sailors, had been treated for minor injuries without the need for hospitalization. The Naval Surface Forces tweeted this information. However, the Navy is really determined to save the ship from the looming doom. Rear Adm. Philip Sobeck, commander of Expeditionary Strike Group Three, said during a press conference on Monday, ‘We’ve been at it for over 24 hours now, and we’re going to get it until it’s done.’ The ship was undergoing maintenance when the incident took place. The cause of the fire is still unknown. We really hope that the Navy is able to bring the situation unde...

Watch What Happened When These VBloggers Broke Into Russian Military Base

This is “going behind enemy lines” on steroids! Viewing any piece of history from the Soviet era is an interesting sight, and the prospect becomes especially great if you can do so without running the risk of ending up in handcuffs. Thanks to You Tubers with the channel “ Exploring the Unbeaten Path ,” we get to travel to the middle of nowhere and view some astonishing space shuttles used in Soviet-era in  Buran Programme . The space facility is abandoned, but the base is still active and located at the Baikonur Cosmodrome spaceport in Kazakhstan. Undoubtedly, infiltrating the hanger was no small feat! Image Credits:  YouTube Baikonur is the World’s first and largest space launch facility leased by the Russian government and is still used to launch all Russian crew missions. The spaceport has seen countless commercial and military missions protected by soldiers patrolling the area. So the video of video bloggers sneaking into the spaceport is nothing short of...

1966: THE ASSASSINATION OF LT. COL. ARTHUR CHINYELU UNEGBE

Anuforo’s next target was the residence of the Quartermaster-General at the Army Headquarters, Lieutenant-Colonel Arthur Chinyelu Unegbe. His house at 7, Point Road, Apapa, was just a few metres away from Colonel Mohammed’s house. So, Anuforo ordered some of the soldiers to follow on foot due to the presence of the Colonel in the car. As the Quartermaster-General, Lieutenant-Colonel Unegbe was responsible for the provision of every weapon, ammunition, vehicle, equipment, clothing, and food for the Army in general. Although he held no command nor battalion of troops, he was a senior officer who, as a threat to the “revolution”, had to be gunned down. Without the death of the senior officers, their “revolution” stood no chance. On arrival at Unegbe's house, Anuforo entered alone. When he found him, he shot him immediately in the presence of his pregnant wife. Anuforo came downstairs and ordered some of the soldiers to bring out the dead body of the Lieutenant-Colonel. “Come d...
