And to the memory of Astronaut Neil Armstrong, Humankind’s first Lunar visitor. 2 Journal of Space Philosophy 1, no. 1 (Fall 2012) Preface Philosophy – the search for knowledge, truth, understanding, and meaning – has occupied thought since Plato’s Thirty-Six Dialogues (424-348 BC). Every person who has gazed at the heavens has wondered what it means for themselves and for humankind. Philosophy is the oldest research subject. Every science has defined its philosophical foundations. Humans have only philosophized while personally experiencing Space since the middle of the 20th Century. Kepler Space Institute takes pride in creating its online periodical Journal of Space Philosophy. A qualified Board of Editors meets the criteria for a professional peer reviewed journal. Article submissions, to [email protected], will be accepted for publication consideration from anyone on Earth or in Space. Readers will note that Kepler Space Institute creates for the first issue of the Journal its own prescription for Space Philosophy (Article #8). Evaluation and/or expansion of that philosophy is invited. With the Journal of Space Philosophy Kepler Space Institute has created a professional online Blog-interactive journal for a major academic and science discipline. Over time, this Journal will be an increasingly valuable research source for educators, students, NASA Centers, libraries, Space organizations, and Space enthusiasts. Views contained in articles will be those of the authors; not necessarily reflecting policy of Kepler Space Institute.

  • What Does It Look Like to Rebrand Space Travel?
    What Does It Look Like To Rebrand Space Travel? ADVERTISING In an endeavor to make out-of-this-world travel sexy again, the Commercial Spaceflight Federation is working to design glamorous and inclusive experiences for the modern age BY IDO LECHNER 18 JULY 2016 Armstrong’s footprints on the moon is a well-documented moment in history, a part of a timeline known as the Space Age which took place nearly fifty years ago. Since then, humanity has made tremendous advancements in space exploration and technology, yet the Space Age belongs to the past – few would say we’re still in it. But if the world’s first commercial spaceline Virgin Galactic, alongside aerospace manufacturers SpaceX and Blue Origin have anything to say about the matter, it would likely be that we’re living on the cusp of major breakthroughs, such as the standardization of reusable rockets and interplanetary colonization are within reach. To help the Commercial Spaceflight Federation (CSF) – the leading voice within the industry, composed of some 70+ key players in the field – innovation firm Viceroy Creative spearheaded a strategic shift aimed to make space sexy again. David Moritz, Founder and CEO of Viceroy Creative shared his thoughts on how the rebranding came about and how it will reshape spaceflight in the eyes of the public: “When we talk about the CSF, we’re talking about many companies that are heavily involved with making commercial spaceflight a reality, and most of them are fresh faces – it’s really a niche ecosystem of startups,” Moritz points out. “It all started when I noticed that most of the astronauts working for these companies don’t look as badass as they should.

  • Intergalactic Spreading of Intelligent Life and Sharpening the Fermi Paradox
    Eternity in six hours: intergalactic spreading of intelligent life and sharpening the Fermi paradox Stuart Armstronga,∗, Anders Sandberga aFuture of Humanity Institute, Philosophy Department, Oxford University, Suite 8, Littlegate House 16/17 St. Ebbe's Street, Oxford, OX1 1PT UK Abstract The Fermi paradox is the discrepancy between the strong likelihood of alien intelligent life emerging (under a wide variety of assumptions), and the ab- sence of any visible evidence for such emergence. In this paper, we extend the Fermi paradox to not only life in this galaxy, but to other galaxies as well. We do this by demonstrating that traveling between galaxies { indeed even launching a colonisation project for the entire reachable universe { is a rela- tively simple task for a star-spanning civilization, requiring modest amounts of energy and resources. We start by demonstrating that humanity itself could likely accomplish such a colonisation project in the foreseeable future, should we want to, and then demonstrate that there are millions of galaxies that could have reached us by now, using similar methods. This results in a considerable sharpening of the Fermi paradox. Keywords: Fermi paradox, interstellar travel, intergalactic travel, Dyson shell, SETI, exploratory engineering 1. Introduction 1.1. The classical Fermi paradox The Fermi paradox, or more properly the Fermi question, consists of the apparent discrepancy between assigning a non-negligible probability for intelligent life emerging, the size and age of the universe, the relative rapidity ∗Corresponding author Email addresses: [email protected] (Stuart Armstrong), [email protected] (Anders Sandberg) Preprint submitted to Acta Astronautica March 12, 2013 with which intelligent life could expand across space or otherwise make itself visible, and the lack of observations of any alien intelligence.

  • Costellazione Manga: Explaining Astronomy Using
    Costellazione Manga: Explaining Astronomy Using Japanese Comics and Animation Resources Daria Dall’Olio Piero Ranalli Keywords Onsala Space Observatory, Chalmers Combient AB, Göteborg, Sweden; Public outreach, science communication, University of Technology, Sweden; Lund Observatory, Sweden informal education, planetarium show, ARAR, Planetarium of Ravenna and ASCIG, Italy [email protected] learning development [email protected] Comics and animation are intensely engaging and can be successfully used to communicate science to the public. They appear to stimulate many aspects of the learning process and can help with the development of links between ideas. Given these pedagogical premises, we conducted a project called Costellazione Manga, in which we considered astronomical concepts present in several manga and anime (Japanese comics and animations) and highlighted the physics behind them. These references to astronomy allowed us to introduce interesting topics of modern astrophysics and communicate astronomy-related concepts to a large spectrum of people. In this paper, we describe the methodology and techniques that we developed and discuss the results of our project. Depending on the comic or anime considered, we can introduce general topics such as the difference between stars, planets and galaxies or ideas such as the possibility of finding life on other planets, the latest discoveries of Earth-like planets orbiting other stars or the detection of complex organic molecules in the interstellar space. When presenting the night sky and the shapes of constellations, we can also describe how the same stars are perceived and grouped by different cultures. The project outcomes indicate that Costellazione Manga is a powerful tool to popularise astronomy and stimulate important aspects of learning development, such as curiosity and crit- ical thinking.
