September 23, 20214 yr Ya' can't make this stuff up, folks! 😹 The US Space Force Will Wear Battlestar Galactica Uniforms Quote The United States Space Force, the sixth division of the United States Armed Forces and sister branch to the United States Air Force, has just unveiled prototype pictures of their new uniforms. The unveiling happened at the Air Force Association’s Air Space & Cyber conference currently taking place in National Harbor, Maryland. Judging by the look of the new uniform, it seems as though the Space Force has taken a great deal of inspiration from the iconic science fiction show, Battlestar Galactica (2004), “So Say We All”. We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

September 23, 20214 yr I knew those things looked familiar. I thought it was Star Trek. | Dave | I've been around for most of my life. There's always a sunset happening somewhere in the world that somebody is enjoying.
September 23, 20214 yr Jeez, they look terrible. Were they actually trying to make them fit badly? Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
September 23, 20214 yr So first they copy science fiction and call it space force, then they copy Galactica uniforms 🤔
September 23, 20214 yr Author The fabric of the Battlestar Galactica uniforms actually looks more comfortable. Beyond that, I have questions about how those things will drape / hang on a person when unbuttoned. We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically......

I guess they're going for the theory that things don't hang down awkwardly when you are in zero gravity. 🤣 Personally, I think they should have gone for one of the outfits from that camp Flash Gordon movie, but as it stands, they look like some cheap and nasty drum majorette uniform from a dodgy military school, and what is worse, that was the design which won the contest, gawd alone knows what the other entries which didn't win must've looked like. Seriously, it's pretty embarrassing when the uniforms from a cack sci-fi show look better than the ones your unit wears at dress parades.

I've always believed that Lorne Greene made a much more approachable and authentic Adama. The original series was far superior to the reboot, IMHO. Fr.
