Mabuhay Asgardians! Ito si Igor Ashurbeyli, Ang lumikha ng Asgardia, ay malugod kayong tinatanggap sa aking opisina sa Moscow. Dito ang lugar kung saan ang ideya ng paglikha ng unang estadong pang kalawakan sa kasaysayan ng tao ay binuo. At dahil ngayon ang ikatlong buwan mula nang ihayag namin ang simula ng politikal na pundasyon ng Asgardia, ito rin, ang ika-12 ng Oktubre 2016, ang unang araw ng kalendaryo ng Asgardia. Na sa loob lamang ng 40 oras, mahigit sa 100,000 aplikasyon sa Asgardia ang naipasa at sa loob ng dalawang buwan, ang bilang ay tumaas sa halos mahigit kalahating milyon. Nitong nakaraang ika-12 ng Disyembre, nanawagan ako sa inyo na iberipika ninyo ang inyong datos, at sa loob lamang ng dalawang linggo ay mahigit sa 100,000 Asgardians ang nagkumpirma ng kanilang personal na datos at binigyan ako ng awtorisasyon upang maging kinatawan ng Asgardia bilang pangulo ng bansa. Personal akong nagpapasalamat sa bawat isa sa inyo sa tiwalang inyong ipinagkaloob. Ngayon, ang Asgardia ay binubuo ng mamamayan na nagmula sa higit dalawang daang bansa. Ito ay ang globo; kung saan ang bawat nasyon ay gumagamit ng iba't ibang kalendaryo. Hindi natin maaaring gamitin ano man sa mga kalendaryong ito dahil ang nasyong pang kalawakan ay may ibang pamumuhay kaysa sa mundo. Ang Asgardians ay gumagamit ng higit sa 100 wika sa buong daigdig. Ang Ingles ay ang pinaka popular sa lahat. Ito ang ginagamit ng higit sa 48 porsiyento ng Asgardians. Kinakausap ko kayo ngayon gamit ang aking lokal na lenggwahe,sa ruso, kung saan ika-walo sa ginagamit na lenggwahe sa Asgardia. kakaiba para sa akin na tinatawag na ‘Ama ng Nasyon’ ngunit nang maihayag na 70 porsyento ng Asgardians ay kabataan na may edad na 18 hanggang 35 taong gulang, aking napagtanto na ang pangunahing gawain natin ay protektahan ang ating planeta at ingatan ang ating tahanan para sa mga susunod na henerasyon. Sa bilog na lamesang ito, kung saan nagsisimbulo ng prinsipyo ng kalayaan at pagkakapantaypantay sa Asgardia, kami ay nagpulong at pinag-usapan ang kasalukuyang kaganapan at ang hinaharap. Sa taong 2017, kung saan ang unang taon ng Asgardia, marami tayong gawain na kailangang tapusin. Kailangan nating iendorso ang deklerasyon ng pagkakaisa, pagpasa ng konstitusyon, iboto ang mga mamumuno, italaga kung saan ang ating pandaigdigang lokasyon, pumili ng watawat, ang pambansang himig, ang ating sagisag at marami pang iba. Tayo rin ay naghahanda para sa paglunsad ang ating unang Satellite. Sa likod ko, makikita mo ang orasan na simbolo pamumuhay sa mundo. At sa gitna ng lamesang ito, mayroong isang sinaunang kabibe na nabuhay milyon-milyong taon ang nakalipas. Ito ay ang landas ng ebolusyon ng tao. At sa anumang panahon, ang mahuhusay na tao ay tumitingin sa kalangitan ng may pag-asa at pangarap ng isang masayang mundo at bagong bansa sa kalawakan. Hindi man masasabing ang mga Asgardians ng pinakamahuhusay na tao, tayo ang mga nilalang ng hinaharap. At ang ating motto, kung saan umaasa ako na inyong tatanggapin ngayon, ay: "Isang Sangkatauhan at Pagkakaisa" Isang mainit na pagyakap para sa bawat isa sa inyo. ---------------------------- (English Translation) Hello Asgardians! Igor Ashurbeyli, the Founding Father of Asgardia, welcomes you to his office in Moscow. This is exactly where the idea of creating the first Space State in the human history came to live. And since today is exactly three months since we announced the start of Asgardia’s foundation politically, it is also today that I name October 12th 2016 to be the day number one of the new Asgardian Calendar. In onlya 40 hours, more than 100,000 applications to Asgardia have been submitted and then, in two months, the numbers skyrocketed to over half a million. On December 12th, I asked you to start verifying your data, and in only two weeks more than 100,000 of you Asgardians have confirmed your personal data and authorized me to represent Asgardia in the Earthly world as the Head of the Nation. I personally thank each and every one of you for the trust you placed in me. Today, Asgardia’s home for citizens for more than 200 countries. This is the whole globe; where different nations adhere to different calendars. We cannot give preference to any of those since our Space Nation has to rise above the commotion of the Earthly life; above it’s borders and earthly religions. Asgardians speak more than 100 languages of the world. English was the most popular choice among those. It is spoken by over 48% of Asgardians. I am addressing you today in my native language, in Russian, which ranks 8th on the hierarchy of Asgardian languages. It was strange for me to be called the ‘Father of the Nation’ but when it became known that 70% of Asgardians are the young people aged between 18 and 35 years old I realized that our main task is indeed to protect planet Earth and preserve our common home for generations to come. At this round table, which symbolizes Asgardia’s principles of freedom and equality the country's current affairs and its future development are discussed. In 2017, in the first Asgardian year, we have a lot to accomplish. We need to endorse the ‘Declaration of Unity, approve the Constitution, elect the governing bodies, define their locations on the Earthly continents, select a flag, the national anthem, the insignia and many other things. We are also working on the first Asgardia satellite launch. In the background, you can see the clock which symbolizes the transience of Earthly life. And in the middle of the table, there is an ancient shellfish which dates back millions of years. This is the evolutionary path of a human being. And yet, in any era, the best of people looked at the stars with hope and dreamed of a happy new world and a new country in the sky. Even though we, Asgardians, may not be the best of all people but, for sure, we are the people of the future. And our motto, which I hope you will accept and endorse today, is: “One humanity – one unity”. I embrace you and every one of you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMP51UQlmAg

At some point Asgardia will need to have it's own laws..this reference may help when that time comes "The European parliament has urged the drafting of a set of regulations to govern the use and creation of robots and artificial intelligence, including a form of “electronic personhood” to ensure rights and responsibilities for the most capable AI. In a 17-2 vote, with two abstentions, the parliament’s legal affairs committee passed the report, which outlines one possible framework for regulation." the report http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-//EP//NONSGML%2BCOMPARL%2BPE-582.443%2B01%2BDOC%2BPDF%2BV0//EN News article https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/jan/12/give-robots-personhood-status-eu-committee-argues

How does asgardia view or fit in to this..if at all? "Does the White House know something that the rest of us do not? As the Obama administration draws to a close, the White House has suddenly released a major document that details a multi-pronged strategy for dealing with the threat of a catastrophic meteor impact." or is it a "stich in time" ? Full report linked and can be read on Scribd here and once again How does Asgardia fit into that? Do we intend to spend on what is already happening and funded far faster and larger than we can do? http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-12/why-has-white-house-suddenly-released-strategy-dealing-catastrophic-meteor-impact

If you have watched the video you will know the symbolism. Emphasis was put on protecting all mankind on Earth..I agree this is a worthy goal. This goal absolutely must include a home/land for every earthbound person and the complete removal of poverty as #1 We can also include access to clean water, basic healthcare and education as #2 If we adopt these goals then we will be fulfilling a large part of our Founders implied sentiments. I therefore propose we immediately move for a formal adoption of those 2 Goals by Asgardia and begin to work on how that can be achieved and what part Asgardia and it's citizens can play in working toward that . You are welcome to say Aye should you agree.

In the (extremely) likely event that credibility via achievement, message, Government and weight of numbers will be required before a successful application for UN recognition of Asgardia succeeds one route to get there is to create an Internet or virtual Nation.which can run parrallel to any plans that already exist but will give the community a more tangible feeling of Nation status and the ability to immediately Organize. -Asgardia can immediately create a Virtual Nation - Virtual Nation is projected as the economic future of the next 100 years - this will allow us to create a functioning credible Government very quickly which in turn will allow us to move forward without waiting for any UN approval The economic case "Now the national economy is also being downsized—not in dollar output but in productive base. Among the most efficient economies are those that possess limited production capacity at home. The archetype is Hong Kong, whose production facilities even before the transition to Chinese rule were located in southern China. Hong Kong's GDP comprises 83 percent services and about 8 percent manufacturing production. The model of the virtual state suggests that political as well as economic forces push toward downsizing at home and a relocation of production facilities abroad. In Singapore, for instance, the successors of Lee Kuan Yew keep the country on a tight political rein but still depend economically on the inflow of foreign factors of production, while moving local production to Malaysia and Indonesia as well as China. The virtual state is in this sense a negotiating entity that depends as much on economic access abroad as on economic control at home.....A reflection of how far these tendencies have gone is the growing portion of GDP consisting of high-value-added services such as concept, design, consulting, and finance. Services already constitute 70 percent of American GDP." " Economic Success and the Emancipation from Land The world's progressive emancipation from land as a determinant of production and power gives new opportunities to emerging nations. Structures of comparative advantage that were unchangeable can now be overcome through the acquisition of a highly trained labor force. " The Rise of the Virtual State Wealth and Power in the Coming Century By RICHARD ROSECRANCE http://www.nytimes.com/books/first/r/rosecrance-virtual.html The Political Case The first was Bitnation ( links below) World’s First Virtual Nation Constitution Released on Ethereum’s Blockchain https://news.bitcoin.com/worlds-first-virtual-nation-constitution-released-ethereums-blockchain/ Americans – Don’t Like President Trump? Create Your Own Nation with BITNATION! "What if you could choose your own nation and citizenship? What if there were millions of nations to choose from, each serving the particular needs of their citizens? What if you could freely move from one to the other, even become a citizen of several, choosing the one that best suits you and your family, as if you were buying a new car or smartphone? Or, if you don’t like any of the existing alternatives, what if you could just create your own nation? Now you can. That’s the promise of the Virtual Nation, BITNATION, the world’s first Blockchain Jurisdiction, built on Ethereum and SecureScuttlebutt." https://bitnation.co/blog/americans-dont-like-president-trump-create-own-nation-bitnation/ Replacing Politics With Lines of Code "This is where i would like to propose an alternative case. One where humans are no longer to be trusted to make decisions for the millions they hold politically captive, brought upon by our inability to correctly function within our own systems. Where entire governments can be replaced by lines of code. The next evolutionary step in our progress towards self-fulfilment. The power of decentralisation " https://bitnation.co/blog/replacing-politics-with-lines-of-code/ https://bitnation.co/space-agency/ Bitnation Space Agency (BSA) aims to create and explore open source hardware and software for Do-It-Yourself space exploration, in partnership with SpaceChain Space Agency. If we do not act now remember this when the bad news eventually comes that the UN will not accept our application..after many months , years of negotiation and consideration of our case..which by the way has allegedly not yet been submitted ( and I would welcome being told the opposite is the current position) There are so many reasons to do this but few, if any, that I can think of that would be negative and the forthcoming UN application is not an acceptable negative nor is "we don't own"/understand it coming from admin.

A Fundemental question is should citizens of a Nation have a right to benefit from the Natural and Technical resources of that Nation or commons, fairly and proportionately instead of certain preferred individuals and corporations including those who are close to or incentivise members of Government responsible for the licences, permits and regulations required to profit from those resources.. Well some might say TAXATION does the job but in most cases it has not..things are changing with universal basic income 1 The Alaska model "Shortly after the oil from Alaska’s North Slope began flowing to market through the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System, the Permanent Fund was created by an amendment to the Alaska Constitution. It was designed to be an investment where at least 25% of the oil money would be put into a dedicated fund for future generations, who would no longer have oil as a resource.[5] This does not mean the fund is solely funded by oil revenue. The Fund includes neither property taxes on oil company property nor income tax from oil corporations, so the minimum 25% deposit is closer to 11% if those sources were also considered.[Context?] The Alaska Permanent Fund sets aside a certain share of oil revenues to continue benefiting current and all future generations of Alaskans. Many citizens[who?] also believed that the legislature too quickly and too inefficiently spent the $900 million bonus the state got in 1969 after leasing out the oil fields. This belief spurred a desire to put some oil revenues out of direct political control." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Permanent_Fund 2 Finland ...36 yrs later Basic Income Arrives: Finland To Hand Out Guaranteed Income Of €560 To Lucky Citizens "..starting on the first day of the year, will receive a guaranteed income, with funds that will keep flowing whether participants work or not. " http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-02/basic-income-arrives-finland-give-2000-citizens-guaranteed-income-%E2%82%AC560-month i would argue it is long overdue to fairly and equitably share the Nations (worlds) wealth (and a proprtion of LAND) with its citizens in a transparent efficient and less corruptible way. This is coming to the world in general over the next few decades not so much as a result of a fairer and honest government sea change in practice but as a neccessity to counter the effects of job destruction and lessen the risk of armed revolution by armies of unemployed and excluded citizens. The problem for Asgardia is we have no National wealth to share and therefore a primary goal must be to create it before we can consider how to distribute it. Although we are a society in the process of formation the absence of urgency, direction and importance of this wealth creation is at best perplexing as we await focus and guidance from leadership so a response to address that issue and that of Governance before June elections would be most welcome .

In a space civilization resources are finite more so than on earth. It's not going to be possible to allow people to procreate "willy nilly". What methods would or should be enacted to prevent population from growing to unsustainable levels? Should people be allowed to choose their own partners or should offspring be seeded based upon genetics and desired traits? -- We have the opportunity to take human psyche out of the equation and breed children with desired genetic traits. While not the egalitarian approach -- I would argue that it is the pragmatic one.

I would like to say "HI" to all fellow Asgardians most especially to my Filipino Kababayans (countrymen)! AIM HIGH...THINK BIG...DREAM LARGE!

Hello, Kinopya ko ang note na ito mula sa Asgardia Forum upang makasiguro na ito ay makakarating sa lahat ng Asgardians. - Lena De winnie. === Sa mga kasama kong Asgardia, Nabanggit ko kamakailan sa mga usapan sa Facebook, na ang certificate ay ipapamahagi at ipapadala sa inyong email sa kalagitnaan ng Enero, 2017, ito ay patungkol sa lahat ng nag-fill-up ng kanilang verification form. Maari ko bang hingin ang inyong tulong upang muling suriin ang inyong form? Upang makasigurado na ang inyong pangalan ay naisulat ng tama, at paki-update kung kinakailangan. Ang pangalan na aming ilalagay sa certificate ay ang pangalan na inyong isinulat sa unang linya ng inyong form. Ito rin ang pangalan na mag-aapear sa inyong Asgardian ID card, at sa iba pang dokumento sa hinaharap. Ang pangalan ay dapat katulad sa kung paano ito nakasulat sa inyong National Passport para sa pandaigdigang pag-byahe, kinakailangang mayroon kang kakayahan patunayan na ikaw nga ang pangalan na nasususlat kung sakali ang Asgardia ay mag-issue na ng National passport. Narinig ko sa aking mga kasamahan na mayroong tayong mga kasama na ang pangalan ay Captain Kirk's, Mr. Spok's, Princess Leah's, Darth Vader's, one Frodo, may isa na Dumbledore at ang isa naman ay Marilyn Monroe. Naiintindihan ko ang sentimyento ng isang panatiko na gamitin ang mga pangalan ng kanilang paboritong character, ngunit nais kong ipaalala sa inyo na tayo ay nasa pagsisimula ng pagbuo ng isang sistema na siyang magsisilbi sa bawat tao sa iba't ibang level kasama na rito ang usaping administratibo. Sa pagkakataong ang certificate ay maibigay na sa inyo, nangangailangan ng mahabang proseso upang ang pangalan ay baguhin. PAALALA - Paki-double check ninyo kung tama ang pagkakasulat ng inyong pangalan. Nagpapasalamat ako sa inyong pagintindi at mabilisang pag-aksyon. Lena De Winne **(English translation)** Hello, I copy this note from the Forum here to make sure it reaches as many Asgardians as possible. Lena De Winne === Dear Fellow Asgardians, As I have already mentioned in some FB discussions, the Certificates will be issued and emailed in the first half of January to all those who have filled in the Verification form. May I kindly ask you to double check your form, making sure that your name is written correctly, and update if necessary. The name that will appear on the certificate is the name you have written in the first lines. This is the name which will eventually appear on your Asgardian ID card, and future documents. The name should be written in the same way as it is written in your national passport for foreign travel (if you do not have one - then how it would have been written if you were to apply). Ultimately, when Asgardia is in the position to issue passports, and if you decide to ask for one, you will need to be able to identify yourself as yourself. I am hearing from my colleagues that at the moment we have several Captain Kirk's, Mr. Spok's, Princess Leah's, Darth Vader's, one Frodo, one Dumbledore and one Marilyn Monroe. While on a personal level I wholeheartedly appreciate the sentiment of having a nickname of a beloved inspirational character, I would like to remind you that we are here at an early stage of building up a fully functional system which will be serving the people on various levels including administrative. Once the certificates are issued it will take time, effort and resources to change the name. PLEASE - double check today that your name is written correctly. I thank you very much for your understanding and timely action. Lena De Winne ======== Mangyaring sundan ang link na ito patungo sa iyong personal na commitment form at i-review ito: https://asgardia.space/en/user/profile/edit Kung ikaw ay hindi pa nakapagparehistro,mangyaring magtungo sa link na ito at sagutan registration form: https://asgardia.space/en/join Para sa step by step-by-step instruction, sundan ang pamamaraang ito: https://docs.google.com/…/1P4STHMED85M5KZKRf-Lfrr3xfz…/edit… Maraming Salamat Po!

Is the UN largely inefficient , ineffective and riddled with corruption and waste and likely to further lose influence and credibility with Donald Trump an the head of it's largest finacier and military supporter? If that is the case should Asgardia promote a new world governing council to replace it instead of hoping for recognition that is highly doubtful it would be granted? A leaner more accountable efficient , less corrupt and truly effective Organisation that can get things done? - "Trump is not the only one to hold a prominent grudge against the international organization, which many have accused of being nothing but an ineffective, if material, waste of taxpayer funds: " Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump As to the U.N., things will be different after Jan. 20th. 4:14 AM - 24 Dec 2016 31,538 31,538 Retweets 88,532 http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-12-24/duterte-i-will-burn-down-united-nations The USA supplies 22% of the UN budget and that looks as if it will come under serious threat under a Trump administration. ( japan 10% Germany 7 % , UK 5% France 5% Russia 2.4% China 5%) Seven countries supply over 55% of the budget so if they decided to make a new body it would become a reality. http://www.un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=ST/ADM/SER.B/910 Apart from its ineffectiveness the UN has many negative issues eg ............. "UNsilenced: Whistleblower Exposes UN Culture of Corruption. When she stumbled across massive corruption and made-up statistics in her job at the United Nations, Rasna Warah knew she needed to act. But when she tried to blow the whistle, she was viciously attacked, publicly humiliated, threatened, intimidated, and more. Unfortunately, though, as Warah explains in her new book UNsilenced [...], her case is far from unique. In fact, the corruption and lawlessness across the UN appears to be systemic. Some of the cases described in the book and the pages of The New American magazine make the scandals she exposed and the retaliation she suffered seem mild by comparison. Indeed, in her book, she actually spends very little time dwelling on her own case, but delves instead into some of the many other known and unknown scandals to rock the global organization." ( and the EU is not much different ) Many others are found here http://www.akdart.com/un.html and here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_United_Nations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_United_Nations edit: this wiki link seems to not work so u can google it and link from there Since its formation there has been no other time when there was a realistic opportunity to "re invent the wheel" with respect to global governance and progress than under Trump and the tide of opinion is turning extremely negative for the United Nations. So the questions are - Should asgardia aspire to join a broken Organisation? - Should we instead campaign to create a new world Organisation with farier rules , more inclusive, more efficient and effective and minimal waste and corruption , seizing the opportunity of current geopolitics? We can certainly debate those issues .

This is politics,science and economics. "Peter Thiel is pushing Donald Trump to use private space companies at NASA" Does Asgardia have plans to offer commercial services in the space field? Does it have the capabilty both technical (probably based on the Founders background) and financially ( big question of $billions requirement) ? "Thiel is no fan of NASA’s traditional relationship with aerospace contractors. During the campaign, he was critical of failed government tech projects, telling the Republican National Convention that “our government was once high-tech” but is now “broken.” “We don’t accept such incompetence in Silicon Valley, and we must not accept it from our government,” Thiel said." Do we have anything radically new or unique to offer that would get funding? Nano tech? Are we more advanced in certain fields or do we need to play catch up with space x before any credibility is established . If so how long and how much will this cost? Sooo many question in need of answers? Article link....

We are a community of 500,000 + and as many have stated this is our largest resource which arguably is being wasted and needs direction What can we do over the next year that is productive and progresses our goals? The question of increasing and fine tuning our goals has yet to be answered is there anyone that can decide on this? Are these decions actually up to us? Is there any leadership that can respond or do we need to create that leadership from within the community? Let us start with options for the top 10 projects that are either on our wish list, have practical application, can be immediatley commenced by members of the community or anything else I would start by wanting to promote and get more participation in this new forum. . Frankly a few hundred active members is not representative of a 500,000 strong group and any decision may not be truly representative. i know it is very early but if we see the membership of the FB pages of max 13,000 or less than 3% we definitely require more pro active work in this matter. what else should we prioritize and who are going to do it...? maybe we need a volunteer list as well :) [Mod Post] Welcome! We have many discussions and projects happening at the moment. We welcome your ideas. Please click the link to Forum Index at the top of this board. From there you can see a list of topics and projects immediately available for your ideas. If you have any further questions please let us know.

digital art is an interest I have. I have been following Depict since it was funded $3.3million by Jan 2016 It is interesting as the concept is rental of art on a 4k screen/frame. I will give the link to the site so we can enjoy what they have to offer :} but I will also link the crowdfunding site which gives more detail and the manner of offering the project , something that Asgardia may want to consider when it comes to revenue/funding requirements https://www.depict.com/explore https://wefunder.com/depict "Why it’s a big deal: Depict is doing for art what iTunes and the iPod did for music. This MIT team has designed the foundation of a new digital art economy. Depict could be the dominant platform where famous artists and galleries sell digital art, young talent gets discovered, wealthy collectors build million dollar collections, and the rest of us access the beautiful world of high art for the first time. " and an active resource site http://www.digitalartsonline.co.uk/

We all have an idea of cultural differences between the East and West and these will become more evident when Asgardia has better communication between its diverse membership I watch a myriad of news channels. Most mainstream have agendas and are heavily into propoganda . A very refreshing and relaxing channel is NHK world the Japanese english channel which is proportionately programmed to air many more cultural segments than the mainstream. https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/culture/ OK yes they are promoting Japan by example but it is nice . Furthermore they look at traditional art , and artisans. the importance of this will increase as more leisure time or employment choice is created/;mandated by robotics Tech AI and UBI What are the pros of your culture that could be an example or lesson learned to those of other cultures and what are the things that should be discouraged?
