What if the bacteria where the makers of nature and live. Imagine that they found a way to cultivate nature above the ground to store energy and to have food for themselfs. For the composting they could use some help so they created the insects to give them a helping hand. Maybe the sea life came at a later point and crawled on land to profit from nature. That was giving the way to the land creatures. The land creatures had to adopt themselfs to maintain nature for their food and to not destroy it as it was their food supply and protection. Then came humans, they killed animals and nature with their greed, apart from the tribes who lived in peace with the rainforest's and the eskimo's who lived on the northpole. Now we as modern humans are killing everything, including very small live and even the bacteria which gave us this beautiful earth to share.

I think we have to decentralize our human thoughts and think first at our environment instead of first thinking about ourselves.

To my dear supporters,

“Asgardia is a nation of dreamers” – so our new promotional video says, and since I joined Asgardia I have seen the dream slowly start to turn into a reality and it is upon that basis that I have formed my campaign.

As soon as it was (accidentally) announced that the age-limit for the Parliamentary elections was 18 and over, I joined the race without hesitation and started my campaign in earnest in the hopes that I could sit in Parliament and help take your dreams forward.

Since that time I have had the opportunity to meet more and more Asgardians and make friends with people from around the globe and it has truly amazed me that in spite of where we grew up or what challenges we face in our daily lives, so many people have been able to put aside their differences and to come together under this concept.

And though we have a lot of work to do, I’m fortunate enough to have seen a glimmer of the future of Asgardia.

I am overwhelmed that over one thousand of my fellow Asgardians that see the same potential that I see, feel that same about Asgardia as I do and who believe in my abilities to get the job done.

Whatever happens with the elections going forward, I’m proud that we can work together to make positive changes in the world even if it’s something as small as sharing our ideas and accepting one another’s cultures.

Thank you so much for all your support, let’s continue to challenge the status quo and turn this dream into our reality.

Yours sincerely,

Ross Cheeseright, Asgardian.

My submission to the contest for our cryptocurrency logo designs. Coin designs will be proposed later on my blog based on these logos but they are 2 different things which is why I didn't upload coin designs to the contest submissions. In the future, I will write more detailed lessons on design of all kinds as well as logo design in particular in hopes to teach asgardian community how to create ANYTHING visual of high quality and advertise it effectively. Now, please read the presentation of my product and remember to upvote it if you like my work. :)

SOLAR AND LUNAR LOGO DESIGNS

Futuristic looking lettermarks of my own, original design with astronomical symbols of sun and moon in their middle.

COLORS: generally similar to those used in other insignia- white, blue, golden/ orange.

BASE SHAPES:

1. Circle (curves) - universaly associated with unity and peace/ safety.

2. Hexagon - nowadays often associated with science but also order (in a positive sense).

DIRECTION: UP

Width to height ratio of lettermarks sets horizontal orientation. Gradients of the backgrounds set the "down - up" direction. Human eye perceives darker colors as "heavier" than brighter colors, both in physical and emotional sense. Together all these elements signify asgardian  desire to reach skies and cosmos.

GOOD LOGO DESIGN:

1. It's easy to recognize for a human eye whether scaled down, shown in greyscale or printed on an uneven surface.

2. Unique: currently there exist about 2000 cryptocurrency logos and none look like my designs here.

3. It represents both the product as well as it's company's philosophy. In this case, as explained already, it's done via use of futuristic design, astronomy symbols, shapes and visual direction.

There's been a lot of discussion on these forums about what the official language of Asgardia should be. I've seen forum chats that suggest an absence of discussion from large population contributer nations, like Turkey. I'm not looking for another "which language" thread.

I'm wondering if there's a way of modifying these forums to automatically translate text into the language of the reader. My own programming experience is pretty minimal but I'm sure there's plenty of more experienced programmers who can throw their weight behind this.

Salutations my fellow Asgardians,

Many of you have may have recently seen something about a 100 EURO fee circulating around on our Social Media 'outlets' and I have seen that it is causing some confusion so I wanted to write a blog to clear up that confusion a little.

What's going on?

On the Feb 01, 2018 Decree 14 was announced and attached to that decree was a special provision that incites a 100 EURO mandatory donation (fee) for those people willing to enter into Parliament. The purpose behind this fee is for those people running for Parliament to show that they're serious and that they're willing to put their money where their mouth is.

Is it for my Citizenship ID?

No. This has nothing to do with your registration as a Citizen. This is a fee for those people willing to get into Asgardian Politics.

Is it a scam?

It's common practice in many countries to have a fee for those people willing to join a parliament or a government to ensure that only serious candidates are applying. Furthermore, in the provision it states

" the money can be returned to you if you so choose, can be transformed into your registration fee for a candidacy to other bodies of government administration, or can be applied toward the purchase of Asgardia national currency – the Solar ."

So it's highly unlikely that this is a scam! Of course, if you're not comfortable with giving Asgardia your hard earned money, don't.

I have already donated, do I need to donate again?

No. Any money that you have donated so far is counted towards your total donations. So if you've already donated 100 Euros or more, then you're covered and can continue on your way to the top.

I don't have enough money for that, what can I do?

Official word from the CEC is that you are allowed to fund-raise money for your election campaign and when people are submitting donations, they need to clearly state on them that the donation is for your election campaign. This will then count towards your total. A good way to get support from your followers and share out any potential risk.

Where can I learn more?

Go and read all the information attached to decree 14 and make sure that you bookmark my blog to get regular information.

I want to work hard for Asgardia, but I can't do that without your support. If you want to help me commit my time and energy, you can vote for me as a Government candidate or support me on Patreon .

Voting results from the last Parliament Sitting have been published this week and participation was reported to be 97%! This data shows that Asgardia’s parliament is in good spirits and that they’re carrying out their duties. AMPs continue volunteering their time and best efforts, representing all Asgardians in creating the first space nation. Following up from last week's report, parliament voted on six issues during the last sitting. Until Head of Nation publishes a decree confirming the details, we are unable to share all the outcomes of the votes with you. We can share one piece of good news, however. Chairman of the Citizenship committee, Mr. Benjamin Dell, was voted as Deputy Chair of Parliament for 100 votes in favour out of 107. We congratulate Mr Dell on his appointment. Mr Dell’s first task as Deputy Chair is to start taking the lead ono collecting economic proposals and synthesising them into a unified format that will be addressed at the next Parliament sitting where Parliament will be focussed on the task of kick-starting Asgardia’s economy. Parliament approved the allocation of resources to hold a physical sitting - passing with a majority of 79 votes. Chairman of Parliament, Mr Lembit Öpik expressed that the physical sitting would be beneficial for Parliament stating that the sitting would be used as an intensive session to focus on the development of Asgardia’s finances. Last week brought good news for the Culture Committee too, as MP and artist Cheryl Gallagher was appointed Executive Secretary of the Committee. In fact, during the weekend Ms Gallagher held a committee meeting. Among very interesting plans for the immediate and long term future, MP Gallagher reminded the committee that the committee should promote an atmosphere of trust, respect, clarity, accountability and work to develop the social health of Asgardia. The Committee believes that a holistic approach should be taken and aim to work in concert with other committees. Alexander Ryzhy, Chairman of the Finance Committee, shared with us that, in the last few weeks they have discussed few topics about National Currency Law, National Bank Law and Tax Law. The committee will generate a timetable for development and submission of proposals for Parliament's approval. They have an outline on a much anticipated and needed National Currency Bill created by MP Takuya Kanako that will soon be presented to Parliament. Certainly, this is a big step in Asgardia development. The PR parliament subcommittee is working with the IT department on facilitating more clear information about all members of parliament, so Asgardians can better know their representatives and directly communicate to their offices in the near future. Overall, the parliament of Asgardia continues building a solid foundation to facilitate the creation of the first Space Nation. It is not a small feat but we are united by a common goal. One humanity, one Unity.

Hello Asgardians!

My name is Giordano Vintaloro , I'm from Italy and I'm a candidate for Parliament district #5 - Italian .

I'm  a professional translator and a university lecturer in languages. I  believe my experience in education and intercultural exchanges can be  useful in the future Asgardian Parliament.

Besides languages and education ,  I have a lot of varied, cross-cultural research interests that in the  course of time brought me to look at the people, and the world in  general, as a collection of stories that all have something to teach  us.

When I first heard of Asgardia, I enthusiastically signed up to be one of the first citizens for a new space Utopia . I think that Utopias can be made possible if we all work together.

If I am elected I promise to work towards a rapid official recognition of Asgardia by other countries, so as to be a reliable counterpart in international  talks, and to make and keep Asgardia as inclusive as possible, a place  where Education is granted as a right .

If you wish to know more about me, you can take a look at my CV in Italian, English and French on my personal website: http://www.vintaloro.it/

And this is my personal page on Asgardia, where you can Vote for me : https://asgardia.space/en/user/139429/profile/view/

Thank You!
