My Name is Shirley Ann Shelden, this is my photo. I can be reached by email at mymyheyheyrockinroll@gmail.com. I am a Citizen of Asgardia, currently residing in TEXAS, USA.
I am petitioning the leader of the nation, Igor Ashurbeyli, to create a committee to develop a protocol for first contact and subsequent interaction with sentient non-terrestrial live forms.
As humanity moves into space, the potential for encountering extraterrestril life increases exponentially. While the existence of sentient non-terrestrial life is the subject of debate, statistics favor the possibility.
The Drake Equation: N = R* • f p • n e • f l • f i • f c • L ( http://www.seti.org/drakeequation ) is the scientific standard for calculating the probability.
Because of this statistical probability, lacking a cohesive protocol for first contact and interaction, would place Asgardia at risk of grave errors these interactions.
Respected scholars have undertaken the study of probable human/sentient non-terrestrial activities. For example, After Contact : The Human response to Extraterrestrial Life (Harrison, Albert, A., Plenium Trade, New York. 1997) is one such endeavor.
The Committee would review current literature on human/sentient non-terrestrial contact and create a body of recommendations of how such interactions should be conducted.
The cost would be negligible as research and committee meetings could take place on line.
Asgardia should be prepared.
Thank you,
Shirley Ann Shelden

This is a good idea. Unfortunately, it remains only a few days to reach 1000 signatures !
Please ask your friends to support this petition. Time is short.
For me a very important petition. The meeting with aliens could start at each time.
interesting. I support you.
Thank you all for your support. I would appreciate it if you would be so kind as to ask your friends to support this petition. Time to gather 1000 signatures is very short.

Fascinating petition, I will support you, this is a very important thing we all should be aware of.
Do not worry about votes on this subject. This is an inherent aspect of "Protecting Earth from space originating threats." Know that this is a society designed to be an active democracy filled with space obsessed dreamers. I don't know how you don't already have the votes but I'm ...

Know that this is a society designed to be an active democracy filled with space obsessed dreamers. I don't know how you don't already have the votes but I'm certain this will be one of the first things of discussion for security officials and others and will most likely work with international bodies that have already developed such protocol.
I think the Idea is interesting, I have signed this petition, but it is not very urgent. The reason is simple: Asgardia is a peacefull union and we do not need strict rules to contact extra-terra creatures while we all already know how to do it. :-)

Another vote for you :)
I'm with you!
I couldn't agree more. This is needed. I feel like this is something that we will need to wait for the first Asgardian Parliment to create and implement, though.
Right!
I agree with the idea, even it's maybe useless, I support you.
Great idea!
Asgardia may be better choice than UN for the public contact (of benevolent ones)
useless? it is one way to show interest/effort on our side making it more convenient for the contact from the other side, in this sense it may be not comletely useless ...

It's a great idea, and it has my support.

Great idea, it's unfortunate it has no time left.
Is it possible to reopen this petition?
This needs to happen. Reopen if possible.
