Unify:Space Exploration
From Arcthon
Over 40 years ago Man set foot on another celestial object for the first time, in the single most important event in human history. The first Moon landing inspired a sense of unity, shared purpose, and common destiny -- a destiny of space exploration and adventure.
Since then we have progressed more slowly than anticipated, mainly due to international conflicts preventing nation states from cooperating, and that other priorities have been made after the race for the Moon had ended.
Imagine how far we might have come in these 40 years had we joined forces around this vision.
We must again turn to this endeavour, with a unified spirit, so that we may make new discoveries, better understand our place in the Universe, protect the existence of earthly life in the hostile environments of space, and become true stewards of spaceship Earth.
