'Will fight in outer space if we have to', US tells China

Brigadier General Jesse Morehouse, deputy director at US Space Command, said due to Russia's aggression and China's ambition of becoming the dominant space power by mid-century, the US is left with "no choice" but to prepare itself for potential conflict with them in outer space. "If someone was to threaten [us]...we are ready to fight tonight in space," Morehouse added.
