Something new is happening on the blog. Fiction has arrived, not as a break, but as a bridge to the Spacepolitans’ universe.
Listen to The Golden Age by The Asteroid Galaxy Tour to enjoy reading this post.
A new section is available on the blog: Becoming Spacepolitans Tales, a place where the Spacepolitan vision takes form through narrative.
Not imagined futures, but lived ones. Not speculation, but immersion.
These stories unfold in a universe where the dream has already been achieved, where space is no longer a frontier, but home.
Why now?
Because a question has been pulling at us since the beginning: what would life be like if we had truly become Spacepolitans, if empathy, cooperation, and purpose had guided our expansion beyond Earth?
A possible answer began to take shape in the last part of the page “AI and the Space Puzzle”, discussing the intersection of space and artificial intelligence, as well as the possibilities of these two megatrends coming together.
That page depicted a possible future where space acts as a catalyst for a new intelligence, combining the best of organic and artificial minds. And that possibility, quiet at first, started to speak.
A being built not to simulate empathy, but to discover it. A station built beneath a spinning asteroid to confine this new evolution and its related risks. Three presences, one synthetic, two human, sharing the silence between stars.
From that seed, the first collection took shape.
Deep beneath the equator of the fictional asteroid 11-Amor spins Hestia Asterobase, humanity’s first true deep-space habitat. Here, gravity is born from motion, empathy is tested in the void, and a small crew faces the challenges of living beyond Earth, not as visitors, but as true pioneers.
This is where the Spacepolitan Manifesto takes narrative form: space as home, not frontier. Through intimate storytelling grounded in science and symbolism, we explore what it truly means to live, adapt, and evolve away from Earth’s cradle.
Where to begin:
- Bookmark the Collection 1 – Hestia Asterobase page for the series introduction and chapter index
- Return next week for the first chapter, The Golden Age, or stay tuned for the next blog announcement
- Revisit AI and the Space Puzzle, the signal that started it all
- Refresh your memory of the Spacepolitan’s vision with the Manifesto.
And remember: not everything on this rock is lifeless. Some things, buried in stone or psyche, are just waiting to be revealed.
Space for All, all for Space! Now, in story form.
