Space Base Delta 1 (SBD 1) is a United States Space Force unit. It is assigned to Space Operations Command and headquartered at Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States.

SBD 1 is responsible for Peterson Space Force Base, Schriever Space Force Base, and Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Station in Colorado, Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, New Boston Space Force Station in New Hampshire, and Kaena Point Space Force Station in Hawaii.[5]
