You can use the same trademark in two different industries without any violation. Trademarks are industry specific.
There's no battle here and really no story given this very basic foundation of trademark law. Space Force (military) have no grounds for a violation against Space Force (streaming) or vice versa.
“ The show's name has no relation to the newest organization of the U.S. military...” Is this a joke? It’s more bothersome than the subpar legal analysis.
Seriously, the show was named after the branch of the military. The creators have been totally open about that. The US announced the new Space Force branch, and the creators thought "that would be a funny show". Steve Carell explaining it: https://youtu.be/TQggDFcXy88?t=322

Doesn't seem to prevent a lot of lawyers from achieving many billable hours, however.
