They say "art imitates life", and sometimes "life imitates art". Star Trek was a great show ahead of its time. As a cadet at the Air Force Academy my squadron patch had a depiction of the USS Enterprise on it. I was in Cadet Squadron 19 (one of 40 squadrons), we were proudly known as "Starship 19". I think it is a fitting tribute to a great and imaginative mind of Gene Roddenberry who foresaw humankind's journey into space. I think the new Space Force logo looks great.

the startrek command (1993)could be said to be rip off the old Air Force space command patch (1982). Also compare the old Apollo Patch

The Delta has been used on a number of Air Force badges since the 80s.
