One of the biggest trending topics on social media today has been Space Force, the new US Military arm created by the Trump Administration that’s tasked with defending American democracy in space. The official Twitter account for the new Military branch recently tweeted a photo of their uniforms, and the funny reactions have been nonstop. The uniforms are camouflage and many people have been wondering why that print would be necessary for space. Agents of SHIELD star, Clark Gregg, had a hilarious guess as to why they’re camouflage and he’s not the only celebrity to comment on the uniforms. Mark Hamill, who is best known for playing Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars films, took to Twitter to compare the look to one worn by Han Solo (Harrison Ford) on Endor in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

“The first #SpaceForce utility uniform nametapes have touched down in the Pentagon,” @SpaceForceDoD wrote.
“Han wore it better. #MayTheSpaceForceBeWithYou,” Hamill joked.

I actually like the new #spaceforce uniforms. But I think they should have stuck to the old uniforms. Unless we invading Endor. pic.twitter.com/2XOWO2i0dV
