The U.S. Space Force released new guidelines for how it will allocate finite launch infrastructure and range resources as commercial demand surges. In a policy document Wednesday, the Space Force reaffirmed its support of the commercial industry to help maintain U.S. space access and industrial capacity but cautioned that government resources are finite and will be prioritized so that national security concerns take priority. A surge in commercial launch activity at Cape Canaveral and Vandenberg has strained resources and infrastructure capacity at those launch sites.
