When a planet transits its star in this way, it is possible to see through its thin layer of atmosphere and measure its spectrum. The lines at the bottom of the page show the absorption spectrum of the Earth in front of the Sun, the signature of life as we know it. Seeing our Earth as just one possibly habitable planet among many billions fundamentally changes the perception of our place among the stars.

  • The Economic Battle for Space, What China Understands That We Don’T
    Lt. General Steven Kwast - Space war EP82 CLEARED FOR RELEASE 04/09/2020 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 97) The Economic Battle for Space, What China Understands That We Don’t Lt. General Steven Kwast joins the Economic War Room for your briefing this week. We have seen the economic impact of the Chinese coronavirus, but sadly that is minimal compared to the economic threat we face if we lose the Space Race. The country that controls the electromagnetic spectrum can paralyze economies and block information. It’s all about quantum energy, artificial intelligence, and the design of data. The space economy can be built for the good of all mankind, but right now Chinese Communist Party is focused on controlling it for their purposes. In space, it is critical America owns the gateways, so we can provide information to all Americans or anybody who believes in our values. The key is that we maintain the values of trust, liberty, privacy and independence that we expect as individuals. As Americans, we need to continue to look forward and not backward. We need to be prepared for the unexpected and recognize it is not time to operate in a “business as usual” format. Too often militaries, civilizations and organizations get comfortable doing things the way they have always done them. They assume they are too big to fail. Yet, throughout history we have seen civilizations and big corporations fall that looked unbeatable. They ultimately fail because some other challenger or adversary shifts the paradigm and attacks in another way. “The civilization that has a more powerful economy will always be able to defend its freedom to act and to do things they want to do.” –Lt.
