Trump plans to announce that the U.S. Space Command will move from Colorado to Alabama. The decision ends a bitter yearslong turf war between both states.

The fact that people are taking about the move and not the actual existence of a "Space Command" shows how fully broken our brains are.

My understanding is that Huntsville is a big aeronautical engineering place. I don't know why Colorado was chosen or additional motivations for the move (obviously this is not zero cost), but Huntsville isn't a bad choice.
