Good morning Asgardia,

It will not the first time that I will use Star Trek and its philosophy to explain my idea of Asgardia. For it's future, Asgardia needs money? I have not an answer in this moment but Star Trek give us one.

Manu Saadia,  in his book "Trekonomics", says this: “It’s made clear and emphasized several times in the course of the show that the Federation does not have money. You have Captain Picard saying, ‘We’ve overcome hunger and greed, and we’re no longer interested in the accumulation of things.'

Saadia is fascinated by the idea of a society in which material wealth has become so abundant that possessing it no longer holds any appeal. In such a world the only way to gain status would be by cultivating talent and intellect.

He says: "What really makes sense in the Star Trek universe and Star Trek society is to compete for reputation. What is not abundant in Star Trek’ s universe is the captain’s chair.”

He points to technologies like GPS and the internet as models for how we can set ourselves on the path to a Star Trek future.

“If we decide as a society to make more of these crucial things available to all as public goods, we’re probably going to be well on our way to improving the condition of everybody on Earth,” he says.

In 1941 Asimov published his first story about robots and his great idea and insight was that the robots are not going to be our enemies or our doom as a society, the way robots were usually portrayed, as Frankensteins. The robots will liberate us, and so Asimov was trying to figure out a world where human labor will no longer necessary for survival.

Saadia says, in his book, that is something you see throughout Star Trek , much more so in The Next Generation than in the original series. In The Next Generation you have these incredible machines that will make anything for you on the spot and on demand—the replicators—and in a way the replicator is a metaphor for universal automation the way it is described in Asimov’s robot stories.”

But he also warns that technology alone won’t create a post-scarcity future. If we’re not careful we could end up like the greedy Ferengi , who charge money for the use of their replicators rather than making them available to everyone.

He says: “The Federation's citizens are consistent with the economic circumstances in which they live. Imagine yourself growing up in a society where there is never any want or need or financial insecurity of any sort. You will be a very different person. You will be absolutely uninterested in conspicuous consumption. … You will probably be interested in things of a higher nature—the cultivation of the mind, education, love, art, and discovery. And so these people are very stoic in that sense, because they have no worldly interests that we today could relate to.

So, it's possible this future for Asgardia?

Buongiorno,

Buona visione

Asgardians, I would like to create something with all of you, a music video of my track (My life on Asgardia) with all of you, it is not difficult, but very simple .... I do not need anything impossible, nothing fantascentific or cinematic, but I'm interested in union and simplicity! here's what you have to do ...

1) Create a personal video, in front of a video camera or a smartphone, of 15 seconds, where you greet, smile, where you are with someone, with your friends, or with your love, or with your puppy, or alone! In the video, shows a sheet with written (I AM ASGARDIAN) you have until July 29th!

2) Send me the video to this address ejayivanlac@msn.com with subject (Music Video)

I hope you are so many, to be able to make this musical slide show, together we can show the union between human beings, even if we are all distant!

Write to me in private for other questions :)

Goodmorning people of Asgardia, today I want to give you some of my writings, poems and thoughts, translated into English ...

Hello citizens of Asgardia, today I want to bring you to the space nation, with a special story, written by me ... A little girl on the space nation! it is written in Italian, but it is also translated into English, for other languages, you can use Google translator!

I tried to imagine the mind of a child, born on the space nation, and its possible questions about it!

I would also like to know your point of view, how children could grow on Asgardia!

Enjoy the reading!

Hi Asgardians! I was in my lab for a while, I experimented with a new sound journey, and dedicated it to Asgardia! This song is part of my new Toxica album, for sale in the world.

You are all invited to my blog to listen to the song! I wish you a good sound trip to everyone, hoping to make you feel good!

In addition, those who want to try to make a video, with this track, with 3D animations, we can work together! you can write to me in private!

Thanks to all the Asgardians of the planet earth...

Per far diventare il sogno di  Asgardia una realtà abbiamo prima di tutto bisogno di una economia tale  che possa permettere lo sviluppo delle infrastrutture necessarie  all'organizzazionee  all'espansione di questa nazione. Sucessivamente  dobbiamo rendere utile Asgardia ai suoi cittadini fornendo in maniera  gratuita e libera istruzione di alto livello, assicurando  contemporaneamente un'ccupazione all'interno dello Stato a coloro che  possono offrire questo servizio. La crescita economica deve essere  finalizzata alla ricerca scientifica e alla costruzione di quegli  apparati necessari per l'espansione di Asgardia, garantendone quindi il  riconoscimetno come realtà sovrana a tutti gli effetti.

Come  parlamentare, io mi impegnerò a promuovere questi tre semplici ma  fondamentali punti e molti altri che definirò in futuro. Io credo in  Asgardia e ne riconosco l'enorme potenzialità. Immagino un futuro in cui  Asgardia è pienamente riconosciuta come nazione sovrana e in cui essa è  nuovo faro di speranza per il genere umano.

Sono  uno studente di Liceo Scientifico (opzione Scienze Applicate) con una  spiaccata passione per le tutte le scienze, sia naturali che applicate.  Studierò Fisica Teorica all'università e mi impegnerò a diventare un  ricercatore, spinto da un'insaziabile curiosità e mosso dalla mia voglia  di mettermi in gioco. Credo di poter dare molto ad Asgardia e sono  certo che riuscirò a dimostrarlo.

Spazio

Lo spazio è la migliore macchina del progresso per una società globalizzata. Nulla è più stimolante per un bambino di un racconto su un viaggio verso distanti mondi alieni. E' la nostra natura, noi siamo questo: esploratori, scienziati, pensatori. Abbiamo esaurito le aree da sfruttare e abbiamo distrutto, nella nostra cieca follia, immensi patrimoni naturali. L'universo, quindi, è l'unica strada che possiamo percorrere se vogliamo evitare l'autoannientamento. Più spazio, più vita, Asgardia.

Space

Space is the most efficient way of making progress for a global civilization. Nothing is more ispiring for a child than stories telling about incredible journey around distant alien worlds. It is our nature, we are this: explorers, scientist, thinkers. We ran out of lands here down on Earth and we destroyed, in our blink madness, beautiful masterpieces of nature. The universe is the only way  to avoid self-destruction. More space, more life, Asgardia.

When the space nation of Asgardia becomes reality, a reality that will be known by the entire planet, how life on earth will change, what influences it can bring into the minds of human beings.

Will the Asgardia project succeed, to be a human example for all of humanity, and for all other Earth cities?

You citizens, how do you see the future of all humanity?

I believe that the citizens of Asgardia, too, must have security in their streets, in the places they frequent, jobs, whether the space nation, or the land nation, it matters little. Both versions of Asgardia need military service, which can protect citizens, and all members of the nation of asgardia, from possible internal and external dangers. Living in a safe place is the first option to offer citizens. 
It could also be possible, alongside the humanoids, remotely controlled, or who can intervene, before the soldiers arrive, and a web cam control, active every hour, to control the various sectors of the city!

..............

Credo che anche i cittadini di Asgardia, debbano avere la sicurezza nelle proprie strade, nei luoghi che frequenta, posti di lavoro, che sia la nazione spaziale, o la nazione terrestre, poco importa. Entrambe le versioni di Asgardia hanno bisogno di un servizio militare, che possa proteggere i cittadini, e tutti i membri della nazione di asgardia, da possibili pericoli interni ed esterni. Vivere in un luogo sicuro, è la prima opzione da offrire ai cittadini.

Potrebbe essere anche possibile, affiancare degli umanoidi, comandati a distanza, o che possano intervenire, prima dell'arrivo dei soldati, ed un controllo web cam, attivo ogni ora, per controllare i vari settori della città!

Will the government of Asgardia have its parliamentary center within the space nation? or will it simply be built on earth? 
The future of Asgardia and its citizens must be discussed among the parliamentarians and the governors, welcoming to the listening, even its citizens, a space where citizens of asgardia can say their ideas and listen, the future that awaits them! 
What do you think about it?

A unique language on Asgardia? It is not an easy thing, I think instead that the translator is the easiest way to communicate between different peoples, a bracelet that translates what is said, can be a great option, but also small earphones, could be useful!

What do you prefer? The cuff, or the earphones?

Living in space is wonderful, but friends and parents, stayed on Earth?

It may be difficult to hear them. You have to find a way to communicate, and that can be integrated into every apartment Asgardian!

The 3d display, to occupy as little space as possible, a fast communication system, with a few seconds delay! It is not only useful for citizens, but also for the entire crew of the nation, including politicians!

Can Asgardia have its own (earthly Asgardia)? Terrestrial Asgardia can function as a beginning, the beginning of a new space era, with its personal launching base, and its personal companies to build the space nation, facilitate the costs and the Times, in the construction of new technologies!

Asgardian Earth, it would not leave the current citizens, without having their own nation!

For the space nation, it takes many years to wait!

What do you think?

As primacies of Asgardia, we must exploit all of ours abilities to start a new world, a new era. It's time evolve and to discover our universe or better yet, other multiverses...

New discoveries, new researches, new knowledges, are waiting for us!

-We are Asgardians!

HI ASGARDIANS,

MY NAME IS FABIO, I'M 22 YEARS OLD AND I'M A COMPUTER SCIENTIST. MY OBJECT IS TO BRING MY KNOWLEDGE TO ALL ASGARDIANS, STEP BY STEP WE WILL BE ABLE TO BUILD THIS NEW SOCIETY IN THE BEST WAY WE CAN DO.

SPACE IS THE FUTURE AND WE WILL BE PART OF IT, TOGETHER!

UNITE WE CAN DO THIS!
