Joint operations require joint readiness. @USSpaceForce provides crucial personnel to combatant commands like #USSPACECOM. To level-set training, @USSF_STARCOM launched a C2 course, ensuring #Guardians are combat-ready to sync space power.

Thank you @aamuedu for hosting our Joint Forces Development and Training team. AAMU's cutting-edge research allows us to better understand options, solutions and innovative opportunities to ensure we can address national security and maintain space superiority.
Alabama A&M University recently hosted officials from @US_SpaceCom for a strategic research briefing that marked the commandโs first formal engagement with AAMU researchers as SpaceCom establishes its headquarters in Huntsville. Among featured researchers was Dr. Kaveh Heidary, professor of electrical engineering and director of the RISE Center for Sensors and Systems in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. #StartHere
