A space force is a military branch that prepares for or conducts space warfare. As of January 2020, the only nation with an independent space force is the United States, which established the United States Space Force in December 2019.
The force of gravity keeps the space station in orbit as well as inertia that keeps the space station moving in a straight line.
Yes, although space is a vacuum, with no air or other medium for the force to act upon, the concept of centripetal force still applies in space. Objects in orbit experience centripetal force that keeps them moving in a curved path around a central body, such as a planet orbiting a star.
Your weight does not technically change when you go into space, as weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. However, in space your gravitational force is reduced (you are in a state of freefall), so you experience the sensation of weightlessness.
Presumably the most important force on an accelerating space shuttle is the force of the rocket engines (thrusters). Certainly other forces are present, including gravity and air friction.
There's no limit to the distance over which the force of gravity extends.
Electric and gravitational force can act through "empty" space.

Air Force Reserve Command was created in 1997.
Yes, centrifugal force can be present in space when objects are rotating or moving in a curved path. This force acts outward from the center of rotation and can affect the motion of objects in space.
Yes, there is g-force present in space. G-force refers to the force of gravity acting on an object, and even in space, objects are still affected by the gravitational pull of celestial bodies like planets and stars.
A gravitational field is a region of space that exerts a force on a test object at every point in that space. This force is proportional to the mass of the object and weaker with distance from the source of the field.
No, there is no mass there to have any gravitational force.
The force of gravity keeps the space station in orbit as well as inertia that keeps the space station moving in a straight line.
Gravitational force is the dominant force in space because it is always attractive and acts over long distances. In the vast emptiness of space, gravity is the force that governs the interactions between celestial bodies, such as planets, stars, and galaxies. Its influence is particularly strong due to the large masses of these objects.

The force of gravity
Another word for force is gravitational pull in space terms.
