We all came to this place in our lives due to the romanticism of a very grand thought experiment called Asgardia.

As time progresses, the ideas start to become reality to the point where we sit with a constitution we had to vote on.

I think there are very few of us that agree with the constitution in it's current form, but we have to ask our self a few questions:
.  Do I join into the discussion and affect the outcome?

.  Do I leave when the outcome is not my desired outcome, or do I stay and work from the "inside" to achieve a better outcome?

We are all people form different walks of life, different educational backgrounds, childhood and grownup experiences, but we are all united in one common goal, to make a better future for our self, our children and our communities - and ultimately the human race.

We cannot deprive each other from the wisdom and lessons learned in our life journey so far - we need to share our ideas and believes and dreams and hopes with each other.
Anyone reading this has already given the first steps towards making that better future a reality by joining Asgardia.

The next step is to discuss our dreams of what Asgardia represents to us, how we imagine it to be, operate and how we want to experience it, and for that we need active Asgardians that are not afraid to voice their ideas - specially around our most important document - the Constitution - Say your say on the forums.

The next step is to be able to listen to conflicting ideas, analyze them critically and take the good out of it and combine it with our own ideas and feelings to get to a better tomorrow for us and our fellow beings.

Kind Regards - Ben Dell

I am thrilled to  to throw my hat in as a candidate for the Atlanta Mayor Office! I am a Mechanical Engineer specializing in aeronautical and astronautical systems design. I also have a deep interest in law and policy. I am incredibly excited about this unique project and look forwards to working with everyone here to make this a reality!

As a candidate for mayor my platform centers on two issues: Executive power and residency fees. If elected Mayor I would use my office to lobby for a more equitable distribution of constitutional power and lower residency fees as I believe this will result in a more equitable and successful space nation.

It sure seems like it if you take a look at this thread. In 2018 is blogging still a viable method of communication? Back when I started in the 2000s things were much easier. There was less competition, people were less jaded, and ranking important posts was easier. Is blogging still a viable strategy? Hmm ... How to keep this blog relevant? Perhaps we should add another site like FaceBook, YouTube, Snapchat, Instagram, Reddit, or whatever? Asgardia is already on some of those. I believe blogging isn't dead, it has just evolved. How could we make our community more supportive of our own blog site? Any suggestions?

The Mayoral Elections gets you closer to the dream, it fortifies you more as a nation

Look at those impact crators, each with its own central nod. Crators stacked next and above each other, they overlap, some small others large, wide and deep, some are close others are so distant. They are part of the moon's character and of what it is.

your forming groups, communities, cities and towns will forge #Asgardia

Now can you see the similarities between the central nodes and mayors central role?

It's a step on the way to form a celestial nation.

Good luck to all candidates

First I would like to state that the conception of the initial constitution could not plausibly have been a document forged by the general population. The American constitution was created behind closed doors as well and some members opposed the iteration we have today. It would have been an unrelenting editing process and no-one would've agreed unanimously on any iteration. This concept is realistically the product of a royal billionaire award winning scientist with serious relevant experience.

As the age limit for Ministers of Parliament goes, I am honestly a little disappointed that this will initially create a misrepresentation of the populous. I had considered running but didn't want to apply for a mystery position in government, and didn't agree with the sudden pay wall mid election. Aside from those objections, I do hope that the age of 40 reflects a forward thinking, educated, benevolent, and experienced individuals. It will be a rough go at first I'm sure, it's all kinda weird given the immeasurable distance of the internet. Idk what the future legislature will be like in practice but i believe that if 150 people with decades of life experience decided to join this society and believe in the supreme values, then we'll be just fine.

Hello Asgardians!

I have just put up a post in the Administrative Affairs subforum asking for community input on MOOCs. The post will be open for a month before being locked, and compiled for development. For your convenience, the link to the post is HERE
