SSC Command Plan

The United States, its allies, partners, and all responsible space-faring entities enjoy the benefits of a stable and secure space domain. However, this domain is under threat from nations that are aggressively developing capabilities that put the stability and freedom of the space domain at risk.

Space Starts Here
The Nation has entrusted and relied upon Space Systems Command (SSC) to continuously adapt, innovate, and deliver war-winning space capabilities for more than 70 years.

Our mission is to develop and field dominant space capabilities that protect our Nation, enable our critical infrastructures, and fuel our economy.

Our vision is freedom for all to use space for the common good. We will outpace the threat now and into the future by advancing an expert workforce.
