The UNSC Security Council[1] is the governing body for the United Nations Space Command. As an emergency military government, the Security Council is largely made up of military personnel, tasked with governing Earth and other UNSC colonies and coordinating the operations of the UNSCDF. It seems to have superseded the Unified Earth Government, formed after the Interplanetary War, as Humanity's overall governing body. However, it is apparently beneath the UNSC Security Committee. The fact that the Security Council is guarded by UNSC Marines suggests that it is mostly centered around naval operations.
The Security Council is apparently based in Sydney, Australia, deep underneath UNSC HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6. It was mentioned during a meeting of the UNSC Security Committee, presumed to be an independent administrative military branch.
The UNSC Security Council is likely to be similar to the UN Security Council prior to the formation of the Unified Earth Government. The fact that Ackerson, a Colonel in the UNSC Army, is a member indicates that military personnel may serve on it as well.
The fact that Australia apparently suffered a disaster of some sort renders the fate of the UNSC Security Council unknown, although at the very least Fleet Admiral Lord Sir Terrence Hood survives.
