This used to be the most important query mentioned from many viewpoints - technical, entrepreneurial, governmental, felony - on the 7th Annual Symposium held in Strasbourg, France, early in June 2002. Many principles at the "whys" and the "hows" of our destiny exploration of the ultimate frontier have been recommend in a stimulating atmosphere. the original standpoint of the foreign house college (ISU) - particularly an interdisciplinary, overseas and intercultural standpoint - improved either the displays and the discussions. greater than one hundred fifty humans attended the Symposium, together with the present participants of the grasp of house reviews classification who're attending an eleven month path at ISU. they're younger pros and postgraduate scholars who boost in-depth a few a part of the huge Symposium subject of their parallel group tasks. Their ultimate reviews might be accomplished on the finish of July 2002, and may be released independently. 1 past the ISS: the way forward for Human Spaceflight Keynote handle: A precis the necessity for a brand new imaginative and prescient E.

With the Space Transportation System, the "Space Shuttle", the astronauts had to cope with new challenges. The distribution of tasks within the crew became obvious: the commander would be in charge as on a military vessel, and do the flying, together with the pilot. For the many different Shuttle systems there were mission specialists onboard. New tasks like performing complicated extravehicular activities, operating the Shuttle robotic arm, and operating payloads or carrying out scientific experiments, required specially trained astronauts whose training took a long time.
Until recently, the term, 'humandominated ecosystems' would have elicited images of agricultural fields, pastures, or urban landscapes; now it applies with greater or lesser force to all of Earth. " "The global consequences of human activity are not something to face in the future - they are with us now. All of these changes are ongoing, and in many cases accelerating; many of them were entrained long before their importance was recognized. Moreover, all of these seemingly disparate phenomena trace to a single cause - the growing scale of human enterprise.
And it is your talent. Use it wisely. So I challenge you to envision, design, and create programs that seek to solve our massive social and environmental problems on Earth as well as to propel humanity peacefully into the diverse environments of space. Beyond the ISS: The Future of Human Spaceflight 27 There is no doubt that you can do that. Solving hunger and poverty, and redesigning industrial and consumer processes, are challenging, but by no means insurmountable, technical problems. There is no real shortage of food and wealth on this planet!
