Space Force Guardian

A Space Force Guardian is a member of the military whose special job is space. Other military members work on land, at sea, or in the sky, but Guardians look after the satellites that circle high above Earth. On a regular day, they sit at computers in a control room, watch screens that show where each satellite is, and send signals to keep them working. For example, if a satellite drifts off its path, they help steer it back.

Those satellites help with things your family uses every day. They help maps show the way, help weather forecasters spot storms, and help phones and radios send messages. Guardians work as a team, checking and fixing things so those signals keep flowing. That way people can find their route and stay safe, whether they're driving to Grandma's house or sailing a boat.
