With all the excitement and volumes of news around Asgardia, I thought I would repost here in my parliament office, a link to my recent interview by Helena Aramendia, MP, as she provides a personal perspective of Asgardia's Members of Parliament to the followers, residents and friends of Asgardia.   Find out more about my background, my views and my work on behalf of this space nation...it's an honor and privilege to represent you!  Here's the asgardia.space link:

I am super excited to have my certificate of citizenship now. I joined back in 2017 and am proud to tell people that Asgardia is my space kingdom. Any like minded Asgardians that wanna be friends, feel free to reach out to me. I’d like to become a government official someday when we are living on the moon.

Soon I hope to see the development of academic resources peculiar to Asgardia. Our goal, to create a free scientific base of knowledge in space, could be furthered significantly by a few notable means:

First -  In order to promote the scientific spirit and aid citizens in their research, access to academic databases should be sought out and provided by our government . The resource bundles available through and to Universities are good models for what should be afforded Asgardia's citizens.

Second - We should endeavour to establish its own official academic department, with competent and qualified authorities in each subject, in order to peer-review and publish research.

Third - Official academic conferences and competitions should be regularly held to promote academic work, research, and cross-cultural, multidisciplinary projects.

Fourth - We should seek out ways to provide education and training, both through existing programs and eventually developing our own, in order to provide Asgardians with knowledge and research skills essential for scientific society.

These are a few simple ideas for Asgardia's academic future. Please let me know what you think.

Please take interest of this individual. He is running for District 1.

I, MP Amber Ready, have personally talked with this candidate.  I do believe he has talents, knowledge, to include enthusiasm that would be in the interest of Asgardia's interests and should be considered for a possible seat on our government.

Please investigate .

I am so excited as many of us are...

Seeing history become real at this moment.

We are making history at this moment with Asgardia Events.

Head of State, Administration, Parliament, Asgardians and  visitors from around the world are coming together in Vienna, Austria either by visiting Austria personally or by media outlets, and preparing for history in the now. We have come from a idea to a reality of thousands of citizens coming from all over Earth to create a fabulous nation that has limitless horizons.

Bringing together Asgardians from all over the world in this upcoming week to not only have our first ever inauguration of our very first Head of State, but also the very first formal meeting of Parliament. So much going on.

Parliament Elects that YOU have selected are coming together to start the foundation, based on our Constitution that Asgardians created. I do hope you have taken the time to start talking to those Elects that you are near or that you feel comfortable communicating with and voicing ideas and concerns. Government members that are going to be taking a seat will need to hear your voices and concerns as well. This is an important time to make you voices heard with your concerns, ideas, and problems. We have a long road to walk together and we need to make sure we are all on the same road accomplishing the same goal.

I am sure there will be massive amounts of videos and pictures being posted for all. I will be posting a few as time permits.

I would like to speak with those Asgardians from Texas, USA at this moment......

ASGARDIANS IN OR NEAR TO CENTRAL TEXAS...

If any Asgardians are interested in having a get together/meeting/casual meeting day in July or August to visit and talk with (possibly) Government member elects. and hopefully other Parliamentary members maybe we could get some clear ideas and face to face and visits with some of our citizens. This is a idea at the moment. Always nice to have meet and greets with fellow citizens.  Please email me directly either here or at ready.a.asgardia@gmail.com and if we get enough people interested maybe Asgardians in Texas sharing the day can become possibility in the net few weeks.

Have a wonderful week ahead. I hope to see many of you in this upcoming week.

God Bless Each of You with His Love and Light...

For those who aren't aware of Parliament activities... Parliamentry members are working together very cooperative process getting ready for meeting in Vienna.

If anyone has any concerns, any ideas that you would like relayed please message me and I will discuss with you for clarity before taking the suggestion up for consideration.

Everyone have a great day.

I am coming across some information that is bringing some concern for the future of our nation that possibly already may be inflitrated by backdoor, underground, secret organizations or affliiations of them that will not prove to progress our nation in the direction of peace but follow that of the already existing NWO and like organizational messes that are already causing issues all over the world; especially that of the USA and their counterparts. I am seeing this by research, existing profiles, etc.

Please message me privately and discuss with me your concerns, as I would like to hear them.

Asgardia is no place for these secret, underground, backdoor groups and affliations. We cannot be open and forth coming with each other with the vowed oaths these affliations bring with them. This is not a place for the religious rule from any religion, Illuminati or affliations of them, or any other agenda similar. Humanity is first in our nation, equality, oneness is our nations moto.

I put forth that if you are affliated with these groups leave your agendas with your affliations in your own existing country and not with Asgardia, its people or territories.

Asgardia has already been pegged by many media outlets of being backdoor, underground or secret, or a project of elite hidden agenda and intention , example our symbolism is in question.

This I will be bringing up at our Parliament meetings.

I am not saying these groups are wrong to participate in as humanity is given the gift of free will choice, and that decision is on you individually, but also the decision you made from that free will choice has no place in Asgardia leadership or in the decisions of progress and such similar decisions for the creation of our nation.

I have had it brought up to me already what religion carries our Constitution?

Answer: none.

Humanity sets our Constitution and the oath to protect it and our Earth...Humanity and the existance of it.

I have my own beliefs that I practice daily, but when it comes to making decisons and debating issues for our nation, one has to see no division in religion, creed, origin or color but that of our citizens and their well being, safety, and the issues thereof, in a position as myself.

I would like to privately hear your opinion and voice to relay concerns.

Please contact me in a private message. Be practical, not hateful as this isn't where this post was intended for but to bring to light a subject that I see at the heart of a lot of discussions and possible problematic issues in the near future.

Thank you.

For the future space nation of Asgardia, and even the future of the human race,  please consider all candidates carefully and don't forget to please VOTE for your choice.   Best wishes to all candidates today!

Most people that are interested in robotics are familiar with Robear, (pictured above) the patient assistance robot in current use in Japan.  Robots used to assist patients  as well as the many other uses and concepts in robotic development for various populations, highlight an obvious but sometimes underestimated societal crisis for our species.  Humans have learned how to outlive our abilities to care for ourselves as we age, and there aren't enough young people willing and able to support and care for the huge burgeoning population of elderly and disabled in the world.  Japan is at the forefront of this sort of robotic development as they rapidly progress to a potential crisis in eldercare.

I read another article in which doctors are being told that they need to improve not only diagnostic accuracy, but their empathy and bedside skills, or face being replaced by robots who emulate these important aspects of communication and care with patients.

Likewise, culturally, the nuclear family and the ties that bind families together for the benefit of caring for elderly relatives have never been weaker, as financial and practical pressures of care compound the societal changes of physical and emotional distance between family members.

We are losing our interpersonal glue in many cases, our technological development is outstretching our sociological development as a  species, which will inevitably cause ethical dilemmas that our species have only just begun to deal with. The emotional connectedness divide between newer and older generations has never been wider, and many younger people can't relate, much less care, about people and things of age and past history.  Old = Obsolete and useless, to the technologically advanced young people, like their computers and technology that obsolesce, with little to no sensitivity for people's life experience, knowledge and wisdom that applies from lifetime to lifetime and rarely becomes obsolete.

Asgardia's greatest strength and challenge is the fact that it is a planet-wide community, with the benefits and limitations of every society on Earth available for nation development and societal problem solving.  Sometimes this appears a chaotic and messy process, it's true, however, whether we are talking about human society or all of nature, any game change that shifts paradigms often behaves in this way. However, our greatest strengths can be utilized more efficiently, saving our energy and potential for higher functioning tasks, and developing strong connection and purpose as a functioning human community together, if we have flexible and functional robotic development and assistance for some important tasks going forward.  More immediately, Asgardia will need flexible and effective robotics for a myriad of other reasons and tasks, including obviously long-term construction of a space station, the running and evaluation of scientific tests, and many other uses yet to be invented and discovered. We are a growing nation, but will need to create many more (AI) hands to assist and facilitate our growth and development, and this integration of robots and humanity has enormously positive potential and unexpected outcomes yet to explore.

I'll be quite straight with you, I am and always have been a well-educated experienced career generalist with a background of success both science and the arts. It's my point of view that Asgardia needs BOTH generalists and specialists for maximum success in the newly-forming Asgardian parliament and government, and to create a dynamic and lively atmosphere for manifesting effective research and development of this new space kingdom.  It is my humble opinion that a fully functional and diverse team comprised of people experienced in all the specifics of creating a viable domain in space, along with people who are experienced in many areas less specified will provide a balanced and thoughtful approach, and grow a healthy and dynamic Asgardian society.   Running for parliament in these current by elections, and I think deeply and seriously about the vast number of tasks and duties in shaping all things Asgardia.  Also, looking forward to participating in whatever capacity presents, for Asgardia's healthy and flourishing development.  What are your thoughts on the topic of generalists and specialists and Asgardia?

According to this article from physicsastronomyzone.com, if the Hadron collider is successful at generating an unimaginably tiny black hole this week, (and we are not annihilated by that effort...they estimate they need to generate an almost unimaginable 9.5 to 11.9 trillion election volts of energy for full success plus they ARE generating a black hole, after all, however multiminiscule) researchers may prove both the “Gravity’s Rainbow” theory and that real parallel universes in up to 10 dimensions exist.  Wow! Is that all even possible? Mind-blowing, if true!

.... And all we Asgardians have to do is build a healthy functioning productive peace-loving space nation.  Surely with focused effort we can figure it out.

(Of course, it would also be helpful if humanity just figured out seemingly simpler problems like how to just get along with each other here on Earth, and addressed other Earthly issues, like war, pollution and mass starvation, in part so we Asgardians don’t take those awfuls with us and our species into space... but maybe it’s easier to discover 10 dimensional parallel universes by generating an actual black hole...sadly, that might end up being the faster, easier-to-achieve task. )

During all the violent and "Crazy-town" energies prevalent on Earth at the time of August 2017's Total Solar Eclipse, I produced and released this short original music video using, in part, space footage from NASA and other stock sources as a peace offering to the world, in an effort to inject some positive energy to our future and as a counter to the chaos in the atmosphere that was prevailing. (Still and ever prevailing, perhaps?)  I'm not sure, but I don't think I knew much about Asgardia at the time, certainly I wrote the music itself years ago.

I offer the video here as a small incomplete snapshot of my personal character, my ideals for humanity and our current dwelling, Earth, as well as just a single sample of my work as an artist and musician, along with demonstrating a few production skills. These might be useful as we grow the concept of Asgardia, the Space Nation, into a full reality,  and in the minds and hearts of citizens of our planet and our burgeoning space nation.  I am happy to be among like minds in Asgardia, look forward to participating in its growth and government, and hope this video lifts and inspires YOUR spirit as we face the ebbs and flows of growing a new nation together.

If I can't get the video itself to upload to the Asgardia General facebook page, (the file might be too big) then the address on YouTube is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=14&v=helK2onBhRQ (My artist name is Madhavi Devi, just fyi.) Of course, my candidate information and CV is available in my profile, if you have any Asgardia MP candidate related questions, please ask!
