The uniforms, revealed during a conference in Maryland on Tuesday, feature a dark navy coat, grey pants and six buttons, which are meant to symbolize Space Force being the sixth branch of the U.S. military, Gen. John Raymond told Military.com. In 2019, President Trump created the new branch, the first in seven decades.

Lt. Col. Alison Gonzalez, the Space Force deputy chief of strategy, was among two Guardians who modeled the new uniform. Gonzalez told Millitary.com she helped test the uniforms, ensuring they were designed with women in mind.

Here’s what the uniforms look like

Raymond noted the uniforms are just a prototype, and comment on the uniforms will be collected by Space Force in the coming months. 

On Twitter, users were quick to note the similarity to those worn in classic sci-fi TV shows like “Battlestar Galactica” and “Star Trek.” The response was reminiscent of Trump’s reveal of the Space Force logo, which folks on Twitter said resembled the seal of Star Trek’s Starfleet Command.
