LaRouchePAC will host a webinar on July 18th, on space
exploration as the means to take another large leap for mankind, a
leap which is particularly needed now as we deal with COVID and its
economic devastation. We would like very much for you to attend and
participate, particularly if you are young and intrigued with the idea
of creating a future loaded with awesome new discoveries about the
nature of humans and the nature of our universe, overcoming the
barriers which only seem to stand in our way.
The existential question that had been often posed by
American Statesman and economist Lyndon LaRouche is, "What is man in
the universe?" "For example, human existence is not merely conditional
on the conditions on earth, the conditions on earth are subject to
changes in the changing conditions of life within the solar system. In
turn, the conditions for human life within the solar system as a
whole, are shaped by the cyclical and other changes within our
galaxy." LaRouche insisted that the universe itself was provably
anti-entropic and creative and that harnessing that creativity was the
mission of mankind.
Did you know that right now on the International Space
Station scientists are using microgravity, which allows for growth in
three dimensions, to attempt to grow human organs for transplant use
on earth?
Right now also, 3D printing is being used to create the parts
needed for extended space exploration, right on the space station, in
space, rather than the very expensive process of creating and ferrying
spare parts and repaired parts into space from earth.
Have you thought about the fact that nations are racing now
to mine helium 3 on the moon? The isotope is plentiful there and makes
fusion energy possible. Fusion energy is the means to power
exploration of the universe and ensure that every place on earth has
an available cheap energy source.
This month marks the 45th anniversary of the Apollo-Soyuz
Mission that launched on July 15, 1975. Through space cooperation we
have continued to broaden the imagination, and develop the higher
human identity found at the frontiers of scientific
discovery.
This month the United States is preparing to launch the 2020
Mars Perseverance Rover, which will
carry with it the first Mars
helicopter, Ingenuity. China will
be launching its first Mars mission with an orbiter and
rover, Tianwen-1, and the United
Arab Emirates will launch their Mars
orbiter, Hope or Al
Amal, on a Japanese JAXA rocket.
What if a new generation of our youth, like the Apollo
generation, were trained at the highest level of science and in the
bold attitude of mind which conquers the unknown, the promise now
implicit in President Trump’s Artemis program? There would be no
limits to human progress.
