Starting this blog

Why is mankind still earthbound? Think about 19th and 20th century science fiction. Jules Verne, Athur C Clarke, etc. We should be going to the stars by now. The space race of the 1960's got mankind off to a great start. Then we stopped.

We abandoned exploration, and got ourselves stuck in low Earth Orbit for decades. Now we're not even going to do much of that anymore.

The benefits of a renewed focus on space exploration would foster new technologies, new solutions for power, and innovations that would benefit us on earth as well as in the stars.

This blog is about the hopes and dreams for humanity to reach out to the stars again. Back to the moon, to Mars, and beyond. It's time, our governments be damned, it's time.

Time to Boldly Go.
