The rapidly evolving domain of military space operations has become increasingly integral to national security and defense strategies. Emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), simulators and extended reality (XR) tools such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), are revolutionizing how military forces train and operate. These innovations not only enhance the effectiveness of military missions but also necessitate a revaluation of the education and training required for space personnel. This paper explores the current applications of these technologies in military space operations, identifies potential challenges associated with their integration and proposes future research to guide the development of educational and training programs. By examining the historical evolution of military space activities, the roles and activities of space personnel and the integration of advanced technologies, this paper aims to provide an understanding of how emerging technologies are shaping military space operations and the current and future implications for education and training.
