Our Mission - Small Images

First used in 1961, the delta symbol honors the heritage of the U.S. Air Force and Space Command.

Inside the delta, the two spires represent the action of a rocket launching into the outer atmosphere in support of the central role of the Space Force in defending the space domain.

Spires

The silver outer border signifies defense from all adversaries and threats within space. The black area inside embodies the vast darkness of deep space.

Silver outline

In the center of the delta is Polaris, commonly called the North Star, which embodies the guiding light of security and defending the hopes and dreams of space.

Polaris

The four beveled elements symbolize the joint armed forces supporting the space mission: Air Force, Army, Navy and Marines.
