Our Future in Space
Eagle Sarmont will lead a discussion about our future in space around the following videos. Eagle has produced and collected much information about opening the High Frontier on his website: http://www.high-frontier.org/
Eagle is a retired aerospace engineer and ship’s officer who likes to design and build things. He especially likes to design and build things that have never been thought of or built before. He has designed, built, and test flown hang gliders, ultralight aircraft, homebuilt aircraft, and ground accelerators for launching rockets, and has helped design and build high-performance aircraft such as the F-5, F-18, F-20, F-22, F-35, U-2, SR-71, and the F-117. Some of his work is in orbit around the Earth and a satellite that is headed out of the solar system with his name on it. He has done original research and have invented wondrous things including the non-rotating Skyhook.
About the Meeting
Meetings are open to all age groups and interest levels. Come explore with us the potential that developing and exploring space has to better life here on earth and to open up new frontiers creating new perspectives that can help enrich the human experience.
The Vision of NSS is people living and working in thriving communities beyond the Earth, and the use of the vast resources of space for the dramatic betterment of humanity.
The Mission of NSS is to promote social, economic, technological, and political change in order to expand civilization beyond Earth, to settle space and to use the resulting resources to build a hopeful and prosperous future for humanity. Accordingly, we support steps toward this goal, including human spaceflight, commercial space development, space exploration, space applications, space resource utilization, robotic precursors, defense against asteroids, relevant science, and space settlement oriented education.
