Witnesses scheduled to give testimony at the hearing include Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall, Gen. James Dickinson, the head of Space Command, and Space Force Chief of Space Operations Chance Saltzman to testify in front of the committee.
The hearing comes months after the chairman of the committee, Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL), invited the military officers to testify about the government’s decision to house Space Command’s headquarters permanently in Colorado instead of Alabama.
