Space Marines
Orbital combat soldiers
Space Marines are heavily armored supersoldiers in the Warhammer 40,000 fictional universe—genetically enhanced warriors who serve as humanity's elite fighting force.
The term has become nearly synonymous with the franchise, though similar concepts appear across science fiction: The game lets you play as a Space Marine defending the Imperium.
More broadly, space marine describes any military force designed for combat in space or on other planets, though Games Workshop has aggressively defended trademark claims to the capitalized form.
