Aero-Linx!

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.

The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.

Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.

Aero Linx: United States Space Command

The USSPACECOM mission is to deter aggression and conflict, defend U.S. and allied freedom of action, deliver space combat power for the Joint/Combined force and develop space forces to advance U.S. and allied interests in, from and through the space domain. One unified team with combat ready forces prepared to fight for and preserve U.S. and Allied space superiority. USSPACECOM forces are comprised of one warfighting team of multiple Joint, Combined, Inter-Agency, and Civilian members with a singular focus on providing localized, regional, and theater space combat power to the National Command Authorities (NCA).  Our overriding objective is the establishment, defense, and preservation of U.S. and Allied space superiority through space combat operations for the sake of continued freedom of operations in space.
