The Journey
The journey of our heart, spirit and soul for our future, and our children’s future lies in each of us. Thanks to the many generations of individuals in truly believing the importance of becoming a space-faring nation, and building, achieving, and growing on this strong heritage. NASA, the Russian Federal Space Agency, ESA, and many other grass root organizations and commercial industry leaders have given us the rare opportunity to survive as a species beyond just being a spark of light in the history of time and space that makes up the history of our home planet, solar system and galaxy.
Imagine colonies of planets, generation space stations and ships, and technology advances preserving our Eco-System for generations to come so we as a species will forever thrive, grow, and advert single-point-of-disaster potentials if we are to expand and flourish throughout the galaxy.
No more would we be afraid of one lone meteorite or comet snuffing everything we are, out in one single quick blast. Some traveling at speeds 10 times or more faster then a speeding bullet. How can any early warning system ever warn us in time to avoid or even prevent such a thing with our current technology levels as they are today.
Now, government funding is losing more and more focus on the importance of our future survival, cutting more and more funding and chances in building and growing this lifeboat which earth and all of mankind so desperately needs. How can we turn our backs on thinking this tiny island will never be a victim of disaster and destruction when the evidence of history, time and time again has shown otherwise.
Every journey has a beginning…. ours is about to start, here… now.
I invite everyone to join me in a journey of creating the discussion, planning, and tangible implementation of contributing to SPACE COLONIZATION, it’s future for all of planet Earth. This blog will be the first step in building this cohesion, sharing of knowledge, linking other groups together in common cause and also serve as a central hub in the great tapestry needed to make such a dream a reality.
You have a chance, here and now, to change, contribute, and be apart of history.
Each of us has a unique past, skills, experiences, and talents the Earth so desperately needs to make all of this possible.
This site will begin to open up more and more as the weeks go by. It’s time for the voices of all mankind be heard that the red-tape of politics, social group agendas, and inward focused thinking organizations understand that our path is clear. The distractions of these re-directions will no longer smoke screen the truth, the truth that we need to expand into the Galaxy for all mankind.
Cheers!

It is theoretically possible to travel faster than the speed of light by expanding space-time behind the spacecraft and contracting space-time in front of it, without relativistic mass increase, effects on the passage of time, or accelerational g-forces (Miguel Alcubierre: The warp drive: Hyper-fast travel within general relativity, 1994). Howewer, his original paper stated that it would require extreme, practically impossible, amounts of negative energy. It turns out that the extreme requirement was because Alcubierre assumed that the negative energy should merely affect space-time at the same inefficient energy-to-distorsion ratio as the energy bound in matter by e=mc2 creates gravity. Several physical theories, including string theory, independently predict that gravity and electromagnetism unify in higher dimensions. (Theodor Kaluza 1919, Oskar Klein 1926). If an electromagnetic field could be made to leave normal space-time, that would manipulate spacetime much more efficiently. A spinning supraconductor have been experimentally proven to have a small but measurable effect on gravity (ESA: Towards a new test of general relativity, 2006). One plausible cause is that the Meisner effect forced some of the electromagnetic field (in the middle of the circle) out of normal spacetime. The effect could be made much stronger by placing two or more spinning supraconductors very close to each other to increase the Meisner against Meisner pressure. This opens the possibility of constructing functioning Alcubierre warp drives, wormholes and cheap antigravitational spacelaunches not so many years from now.
The full abstract of the ESA report says that it takes niobium supraconductors cooled by liquid helium.
I couldn’t agree more. I hope to tell the near future of humanity in story. At this point, I can’t claim to be a professional writer, but I am attempting to put a story together of the near future. I wonder if those who read this might be able to contribute ideas for the ways that people could live in the empty spaces of the solar system? What could a station produce independantly? What would need to be delivered? What would be valuable resources to keep in stock for travellers? (The fossil-fuels of intra-stellar travel?) I will do research outside of this forum, of course. Stories like this have to reach the public if we ever hope for the private sector to take over the exploration and colonization of nearby space. Story is, after all, the way individuals connect to humanity as a whole.
As a young child i would stand outside at night looking up into the sky . As a teen i had seen the stars with a telescope . As a man images of the stars come to me over the internet . Hopefully before i die i will see my children will live amongst the stars …
