No more lost in… this blog!
To fully enjoy reading this post, listen to Space for the Earth by Ozric Tentacles.
Let’s begin the 2021 with a blog update. In the last months, we shared a lot of information about how space can help solve many of the problems we have here on Earth, and how it can support the future development of humankind without harnessing our wonderful living planet.
Since different topics were covered in previous blog posts, a new section has been added to facilitate easy access, from a drop-down menu. This section is called “Space4Earth” and visitors can access it from any page of the blog, through the main menu on the top right.
By clicking directly on the word Space4Earth, it is possible to access the UN Sustainable Development Goals list, with all the considerations on the strong aid provided by space to reach these fundamental aims.
If you hover with the mouse over “Space4Earth”, a drop-down menu will appear with the different topics we already shared:
- Observing Earth From Space, why looking at our planet from the outside is a key activity to understand what’s going on
- Overview Effect, the quantum leap in the human awareness that occurs when looking back at our planet from space
- Travel to Space, reflections on the first sixty years of human space travel
- Humans in Space, what humans achieved so far in space and what they could do in the near and far future
- A Moon of Opportunities, what has happened so far on our natural satellite and what to expect from this decade which future historians will surely call the Decade of the Moon…
What about asteroids? Don’t worry, you can still access the two articles published so far from both the Home Page and the Blog Page. (Spoiler Alert Start) They will join this section soon, after the third post about them is published… (Spoiler Alert End).
The About Page has been updated too. There are some basic information about myself and the well deserved thanks to my special proofreader. In addition, a new little video section has been added (I know I am not Brad Pitt, be gentle with me!) and the reference to the Spacepolitans Playlist has been included, containing all the songs recommended so far for your reading. Of course, the playlist will be continuously be updated every time a post is published.
That’s all for now, I hope the new “Space4Earth” overview will increase the reader awareness about the strategic role of space in our present and in our future, which is one of the compelling points of the Becoming Spacepolitans blog. So, stay tuned for the next posts and let’s shout loud the Spacepolitans Motto together: Space for All, All for Space!!!
