The Artemis Accords: man’s contract forward for commerce in space

Are there big doings in space? Just how ahead are we technologically unbeknownst to the public? Introducing the 1 year old Artemis Accords https://www.nasa.gov/specials/artemis-accords/index.html, one of the many programs of the US Space Force https://www.spaceforce.mil. An evolvement of the 1967 Outer Space Treaty https://outerspacetreaty.org, it’s the agreement on “Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies.” At the moment, 13 countries including Canada are signed on and a recent Space News article https://spacenews.com/space-force-talent-strategy-is-a-departure-from-the-norm/?fbclid=IwAR1KBQe3490gX4G5fEyjIPZq_A-eVgNvUvOzjmCnEhGRHAk_xiOGUUQXwFM points out that job recruiting for the heavens is not just going to be for soldiers or astronauts but will be more on a civilian level like building a business, community, etc. 

According to Live Science, there are plans to develop jumbo satellites for humans to colonize space https://www.livescience.com/megasatellite-colony-ceres-oneill-cylinder.html. A report by NASA proposes building a mega-outpost of civilizations around the dwarf planet, Ceres, where people could move to this floating asteroid belt society in the next 15 years. One of the most dedicated persons to study this trend is Dr. Michael E. Salla https://exopolitics.org/about/founder/, creator of https://exopolitics.org, the political study of the key actors, institutions and processes associated with extraterrestrial life. The website is a plethora of information on this subject and his YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/michaelsalla has weekly updates which I recommend. 

His recent article “Are Secret Moon Construction Projects causing Worldwide Labor Shortage?” https://exopolitics.org/are-secret-moon-construction-projects-causing-a-worldwide-labor-shortage/ is timely with all the job upsets happening here on Earth. The globe seems to be in a very big devolution as many are leaving their employment for refusing the vaccine. Is it all part of a massive plan? I think we’ll find out sooner than later. While many will not agree with Dr. Salla’s consultation of mediums for some of his insights, his triangulation of all the other developments have been well confirmed for many decades now, so Dr. Salla’s worth following. Are we on the fringe of the biggest leap for humanity? Looking back, the 1980’s was the pre-computer decade, 1990’s pre-internet decade, 2000’s the pre-social media decade, 2010’s the pre-Space Force decade and this, the most exciting, will be this one with the pre-galactic decade where it’s about to get real. The death of globalism is being replaced by patriotism around the world at a record rate, so our golden age is the rising phoenix from the demise of deep state ashes. The Best is Yet to Come!
