So at the moment I'm just tracking Asgardia-1

In space. I think of it as a small tiny part of new adventure into the future.  I'm still not sure where I'f at all I actually fit into the big picture of this new space world. But its caught my interest as to all the possiblities that  space future can hold for human kind.

Lol little digital satellite is the start of another home 🌌 I guess sorta like VR -Virtual Reality but floating in space holding a place in space with peoples digital uploads. So I'm sorta in space hmm?

Seeing everyone doing such amazing and groundbreaking work makes me feel a little inadequate at times.

I am a CPhT and I have worked as a veterinary assistant (or technician and even an animal daycare supervisor) for the majority of my life. I'm trying to whittle my debt down, I have four cats, and a love for movies, books and so many video games (plus science).

I color (on any medium) and cross-stitch when my anxiety gets the better of me. It happens more often than I'd like.

Hell, now I work in retail at Walgreens and I'm -happy- at customer service.

I'm the most boring, everyday lass here. But I still AM here, and I still believe in our Kingdom in space. That's got to count for something, right?

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I recently learned about Asgardia, and immediately became one! I am hoping to get elected to the Parliament, so I thought posting my platform in my first blog will help you to get to know me. Here are my thoughts....today, Humanity, with your help, has a chance to redeem itself and  change the course of human history. Together let’s join this “Grand  Staircase to the Stars”. We, as one borderless nation, have an  opportunity to make the next generations free of conflict and  divisiveness that has been the plague of society for millennia. I, for  one, want to leave a mark on the world and see it become a better place  than when I entered it. I feel there is no greater way to help one  another than to work together with common bonds, common goals, and  common sense of purpose while surrounded by generosity and love. I want  to work with you, and beside you, not above you. Please vote for me and I  will work tirelessly to listen to your suggestions and make EVERYONE  part of the decisions that will help us all move forward together as we  climb to the stars. I will not serve to make my decisions, rather I will  serve to make OUR decisions. A vote for me a will mean your voice WILL  be heard. Godspeed, everyone!

I promise to:

• Support research to create renewable resources in space support long term human habitation.
• Support increased development of satellite technology that will help Planet Earth recover from ecosystem destruction.
• See that all voices will be heard.
• Please vote for me, or at least drop me a note so I know someone is listening!

I saw the article about Asgardia, and I was floored. Shocked. Had goosebumps.

In my lifetime, I will get to see mankind go into space.  My children may have the chance to make the trip. Their own children would have the chance to live their entire lives on Mars.

When I was a child, I won an Honorable Mention for an essay I wrote, entitled, "My Future In Space".  I longed to be an astronaut. I was accepted to the Air Force Academy, to be in the first class of female astronauts.

I had to learn to fly to go.

My Uncle had a 4 seater Cessna. He and his son had licenses. I was going to learn to fly.

My first lesson was on a hot August afternoon, 1974. Bill landed at North Vineland Airport, and I was waiting there with our Grandma. I boarded the plane, and sat beside Bill...I was to be co-pilot.

We were in the air for over an hour.  Since Bill was going to stay for a visit, and had to be back to the airstrip near their home in Brick by dinner, we cut the flight short and landed.

When I disembarked, Grandma was waiting. "Did you enjoy your flight, honey?" she asked.

I promptly responded by barfing on Grandma's sensible shoes.

So much for the Air Force Academy. I became a Chemistry teacher, graduating with a dual major in 4 years. The insane amount of work for a totally crappy yearly salary of $10K drove me to abandon teaching for a ludicrous job as a casino employee in Atlantic City.

Those were crazy days. Those were the best of times; the world was my oyster.

Fall 1986 I returned to education, as an Honors 8th Science teacher, finally at a decent salary.

Over 3 decades flew by...bought a home, new cars. Had twins after 10 years of marriage, ex walked out when the boys were 3 months old. Life moved so fast I could feel the wind on my face, couldn't catch my breath as I multitasked before anyone knew what it was.

Divorced, raised kids, helped parents. Good times, happiness and sunshine filled our days. The boys grew and thrived. Within 18 months, I was accepted to law school, my Daddy died, Mom came out of remission (stage 3 ovarian cancer) and died 2 months shy of my 40th birthday. The boys were nearly 7.

In 20 years' time, I met my husband, we got together. He helped me raise my sons, and keep my promise to my Mom that I would get my advanced degrees. I finally taught High School and College Chemistry.

10 years ago, my sons were finishing high school, on the brink of adulthood. I wasn't feeling well. my bloodwork came back very irregular. My doctors told me to stop teaching or I would die. I retired in 2010. The search began.

The boys were finishing college. Jon graduated, went into the military and built himself a marvelous career, traveled the word, found himself a fantastic wife. Matt graduated later, two majors and a membership in a jazz combo. He works in prescription research and formulation, and plays six instruments.

in the meantime, my health issues began to drop like dominoes. Cardiac issues, then the lump in my neck hardens. Could it be I had cancer in my thyroid?? My thyroid was removed a day before my 54th birthday. No cancer. The blood counts seem to worsen. Within 6 months, I had my first period since 1999. Doc gives me pills to stop the bleeding so I can travel to Jon's bootcamp graduation in SC. I took the pills. The bleeding worsened.

Upon inspection, I was found to be full of tumors in my pelvis and uterine area. One tumor was the size of a 16 week pregnancy. After the 2 hour surgery turned into over 6 hours, I wound up in ICU. I could not breathe, and nearly died.

I had stage 1b=2 uterine carcinosarcoma. A 39% chance of living 60 months.

8 months of chemo, radiation, brachytherapy dragged by. Lumps in my left breast were benign. Bones in my right hand deteriorated, needed reconstruction and therapy. Numbness from the waist down was neuropathy, from surgeries, chemo and radiation. I was incontinent. I never knew what the next day would bring.

I was cancer-free 4 years the end of March 2017. Sadly, the cousin who helped me most, who was like my big sister, lost her battle with squamous cell carcinoma just before my birthday in 2016. I was by her side every step of the way.

Every day is 1 step at a time. I look forward to what the next day will bring. If today is good, tomorrow will be better. I see these first steps into space as hopeful and joyous events, that will assure the survival of mankind. I want to live to see this all unfold.

Welcome to all who visit here. Hopefully you are watching this process with as much wonder and excitement as I am. I will be here to see those first steps; then the launch and landing that will bring mankind into a whole new reality.

I thank you and salute you, founders of this Space Kingdom.

According to General Douglas MacArthur, the soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.

I would like to take my experience and ensure the safety of the nation and it's people, not by acting, but by helping to plan on how to counter threats and by showing people how to become healthier and how to exercise, for our bodies are both science and art.

I am in my early thirties, and my primary employment is to support Deaf children with Special Needs in the Baltimore City public school system. Some of my students are incapable of effective communication in the written form, because of their special needs. None of them would be capable of a verbal conversation without the use of assistive medical devices. There is no reason to exclude people like them from Arcadia, yet exclusion already occurs.

The most obvious point of exclusion? None of the many Sign Languages that exist on Earth are even considered a language by Arcadia. Because of the marginalization of the Deaf on Earth, none of them are even in consideration for Arcadia's 12 official languages. Our citizens will have Deaf children. They will also have children with Special Needs. They will have children with physical disabilities. They will have children with all of the above. Our government, and education system, must recognize such challenges so that we can solve them.

As a nation that clearly states that it will mirror earth, but not be like it. Will marijuana and other substances (to a certain extent) be legal in the space nation? I'm sure we'd all love a 'THAT 70'S SHOW' spinning camera sequence while gazing into the galaxy. Agree? Disagree? I'd love to read your perspective!
