I like the Star Trek-ish nature of the insignias.

Now we know where STAR TREK got it symbols.

Back in the olden days when I was in the USAF, there was a three stripe, blue star "Senior Airman," and a three stripe, silver star "Sergeant." Both were E-4, but only the Sergeant was an NCO. E-5 was "Staff Sergeant."
Senior Airman vs. Sergeant, circa 1980:
Then the Air Force dropped the Sergeant rank, and put back the Silver Star on all ranks, and E-4 is now just Senior Airman. The first NCO rank is E-5 Staff Sergeant.
According to your chart, there will be a Space Force E-4 designated Specialist 4, and E-5 will be Sergeant, followed by E-6 Technical Sergeant. Staff Sergeant seems to have been eliminated by the Space Force.

Nicely done. I like the heraldry. A good start for our newest armed service (assuming that they will be armed with something besides a keyboard.)

No Gunnery Sergeant - who’s in charge of the photon torpedoes and phasers?

RE: the junior enlisteds, the army used the “Specialist” rank to distinguish technical ‘specialists’ from the common grunt. Calling everyone at that grade a “Specialist” is stupid because if everyone is special, then no one is special.
And the whole Star Trek iconography is clichéd and overdone.
Other than that, great job, fellas!

I was just reading the
Twitter feed on this graphic.
Man, the number of Leftards still suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome there is YUUUGE.
All of them though Biteme and Nanzi would/should cancel the Space Force; not because it is needed or not, but because Trump did it.

No time for (Staff) Sergeants? You move right from Sergeant E-5 to Technical Sergeant E-6?

Yawn...
Big whoop on the chevrons...
How about the details on:
- the frilly lace on their skivvies?
- the pretty ribbons & bows on their shoes and boots?
- the medals and lanyards for the Advanced Dance Class levels?
- the combat ribbons for foreign bathhouse wars?
- the Pink Heart Medal for a rupture anus?
