The "Naval" fleet of ships

The "Naval" fleet of ships

I've always thought it natural that fleets of futuristic space ships were refered to as the Navy. They are ships after all. Bu-bu-bu-bu-but! Wait a minute! NOOOOO!

Since I've decided on enlisting in the Air Force, I've been browsing their website and flyers and whatnot, and I noticed something- Technically, in America at least, it's the Air Force's court, not the Navy's! Now, to prove that I am making a well-supported, well-grounded, well-scholarlyish, well-thought out, well-presented, well-put together, not-repetitive in any way shape or form statement, a word from my trustworthy scource: Wikipedia! "The United States Air Force (USAF) is the aerial warfare and space warfare branch of the U.S." http://www.airforce.com/ mentions it too, in case there is someone out there who wouldn't think to look there. (Sorry Navy, you're still pretty cool)

Who wuda thunk? I didn't, but I wonder why it's never come to me until now.

You know, it's funny to me that it turns out that- suprise, it's the Air Force working in space, but now we're guessing it will end up looking more like the Navy anyway. I guess what comes around goes around.
