Space Force Will Not Be Based in Colorado

Since it was first introduced, Space Force has been temporarily based in Colorado Springs. The state was fighting to keep it here permanently, but toady found out their attempts had failed.

According to KRDO:

The Air Force is recommending that US Space Command be permanently located at the Army's Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, ending a competition for the headquarters between multiple regions, including Colorado Springs.
KRDO confirmed the news Wednesday via a statement from Alabama's Governor Kay Ivey. A statement released by the Air Force Wednesday afternoon confirmed that Redstone Arsenal was the "preferred location" for the new HQ, however, it added that a final decision for the location is anticipated in Spring 2023.
However, it'll be a while before the move takes place. The Air Force selected Peterson Air Force Base as the provisional HQ for Space Command for six years back in May of 2020.
