– to ensure humanity’s future, we must escape into space, – said Stephen Hawking during a lecture at Oxford University this week. – I don’t think we survived on this planet for another thousand years.
noted physicist, is convinced that what will cause a global cataclysm,… technology. – We are facing many threats. From nuclear war, catastrophic global warming, after the fact, of genetically modified viruses. Along with the development of technology the number of threats will grow, he said. – If we are able to distribute in space, a cataclysm on Earth would not automatically mean the end of the human race. But not to consider self-sufficient colonies beyond Earth after some hundred years. This is the period during which we must be especially careful.
the Rescue of coward Stephen Hawking and the rest of the human race, however, may come from an unexpected quarter. The main change in the programs of the American space Agency NASA promises for Donald trump. And his advisors on science and space Affairs: former Congressman Robert Walker and former astronaut, the second man, fleet of foot on the moon buzz Aldrin is ready-made recipes.
first, NASA needs to be cut off from the Earth Sciences. The end with the ooh care, for example, climate change – that only confirms the attitude of the tramp to the problem of global warming. These duties will take the other Agency. NASA proposes to focus on the exploration of outer space, including to accelerate work on the załogowymi space missions. According to Robert Walker’s goal is “the study of the Solar system to the end of the century”. All operations in near Earth orbit trump intends to give in the hands of private companies – primarily SpaceX.
second, will back the National Space Council the presidential Council, whose purpose is to coordinate activities of Federal agencies in the field of space technology. The Council worked under George H. W. Bush……, but was discontinued in 1993, after personal interference. Barack Obama promised it to reboot, but didn’t. Trump claims to shoot with her responsibility for the strategic decisions of the managers of NASA.
the same is said also buzz Aldrin. According to him, the current NASA projects are too expensive and unnecessary. – Trump is the best thing that could happen to American plans for the conquest of space, said CNN.
Especially critical Aldrin speaks about the flagship project of the Agency, that is, heavy carrier rocket Space Launch System, which should allow space travel to the moon and mission to Mars. He does not like also the Orion capsule, which will give NASA finally the ability to send people into space. According to the American astronaut, these functions can take on SpaceX.
And in America to be on the Red Planet? Aldrin years to own the idea of the pendulum plying vehicles between the Earth, Moon and Mars. This car pokonywałby the way to Mars for five months and then came back after the next delivery into orbit of our planet. The flight program is much zredukowałby the ultimate cost of maintaining a base on a distant planet or even the moon. So NASA doesn’t even have plans for such spacecraft.
Councillors elected President also talking about the need for more cooperation with China, including joint missions and bases. You also discussions on the status of the International Space Station and to transfer part of the cost of its operation to private companies.
Preview of advisers Donald trump has been well received by large companies involved in space technology. Shares of Boeing and Lockheeda Martin took off. Full of fear, they are for officials of NASA, who still don’t know anything about personal plans or about the new budget.
