Has Admiral Kirk wieghed in on the logo design yet?
Seems a little like the SFAB's starting off with "green-ish" berets. It ain't the same, but it sure is close....................

Shatner did weigh in on Twitter, he didn't take a stand. He may know that Roddenbery stole it from NASA:

Maybe your purpose on this planet is not on this planet
Most of us chuckle when this stuff shows up,,,
But I have 5 G-Kids, ages 5-15.
Maybe their purpose on this planet isn't 
Thanks, I'll make sure they see this

I saw an interesting piece that opined that the space force should use Navy rank, uniforms and general customs and not Army/Air Force/Marine . He made a good point.
Separate the culture from the Air Force. Set up the force for the future and truely focus it on Space and not he land.
Not a new thought. Most science fiction writers have long defaulted to using naval rank etc. when talking about the arm of a military operating and fighting space ships in space.
However, I realize that the real focus of the space force is not controlling space to control space, but rather space being an method of impacting terrestrial operations (IMHO)... so in that regard it's just a higher altitude wing of the air-force for now.
Me? I would have voted to give it Navy rank to totally divorce it from the Air Force and then in the future give orbital space back to the air force..and let the Space Force focus.

Gene Rodenberry did that in the mid 1960s with Star Trek. And, ships didn't have seat belts, so neither do Starships.

Ironically, in the new Star Trek movies...the Enterprise DOES have seat belts.
