Quarterly Project Proposal 2017A Now Open - Guidelines and Process

Hello Asgardians! The first round of quarterly project proposals for 2017 is beginning. It will run from Feb 1 - Mar 31, 2017. We have developed a project proposal guide that has been approved by Asgardia Official to help the Asgardian community contribute to the building of our nation. This proposal guide helps Civic.Asgardia, the civil branch of Asgardia, to prepare cogent and concise material for review to obtain an official endorsement. The goal of a project proposal is to: 1. Identify what needs to happen 2. Explain why it needs to be done 3. Persuade the reader that your team has wisely considered a problem and has a realistic plan and resources prepared to perform the required tasks. In addition to having a consistent, attractive appearance, the information should be easy to access. It should be well-organized. Balance an easily scannable overview with sufficient technical details to demonstrate that your team has thought through the process. **Download the Project Proposal Guidelines Document pdf** ###**Guidelines** **Prerequisites:** Project Leads must be verified Asgardia Members. Only one (1) proposal may be submitted at a time by any member. **Proposal Formatting:** Proposals must be submitted in an electronic format following the outline established in this guide. Text must be in English and maintain a simple Arial 12 point, single spaced, 0.5” indents presentation. Accepted submission formats are view-links to cloud storage (such as Google Docs, Microsoft OneDrive) or stand-alone material in a .DOC/.DOCX format. **Organization:** Your proposal should have material organized into Front Matter, Main Body and Supporting Documents. **Deadline:** Submission rounds occur each quarter of the year. Completed proposals must be submitted by the END date of each round. Proposals received after this date will be entered into the next round. Documents must be emailed to adminteam@asgardia.space with a subject of “Proposal: (title).” **Response:** Endorsements will be announced in the months following the submission deadline. Projects requiring funding may require longer deliberation time. Proposals not meeting these guidelines will be returned or rejected at the discretion of the reviewers. Let's get to work Asgardians! Kind regards, Rebekah Berg, Lead Community Administrator, Asgardia

Feeding the space nation?

Hey this is my first post so I hope it's in the right area. What does everyone think the main food source would be aboard Asgardia? It seems inefficient to raise animals up there, so would a vegetarian diet be the standard?

Dietary cholesterol should be fully done away with. The humane body produces all it needs on its own. For a forward thinking movement such as this. Eliminating the cause for atherosclerosis simply prevents a wide array of diseases/cancers.

If you read the strange article, you see that there is no typographical error because its author wrote "150 millions", not 150 000 000. Referring to the first annoncement of Asgardia project at 12.10.2016 by Igor Ashurbeili, who never spoke about such strange numbers.

Asgardian 34916

Jun 13, 17 / Can 24, 01 09:28 UTC

I'd suggest the vast numbers to be a typographical error - remove a few zero and it's about right for current population, when that was written. Maybe it's possibly accounting for numbers that are predicted for by the time it's feasible to begin construction on such facilities, it's unlikley to ...
