So space is a new US territory, and we're exploring it for the purpose of
erection of forts, magazines, dockyards and other needful buildings?



More like the open seas, but we have bases established all over the world to

If we are to keep space open for our use, both commercial and military, we must
explore it and establish the necessary presence there.
