The unique combination of size, functionalities and low-cost make of the nanosatellites a must. At the beginning was tested and demostrated their feasibility using consumer electronics components. Inmediately was clear the potential paradigm shift that nanosatellites means. Now is not only possible but very affordable to design the missions in outer space using multiple spacecrafts.
First ever tour, and portrait, of the Solar System, 20th century. The Voyager deep space probe sends an intriguing image, even disturbing. In it, with an apparent size only 0.12 pixel, is the Earth. Astronomer Carl Sagan, main designer of the mission, had been working for a decade to get these pictures taken. Himself converted the faint image of Earth in one of the most iconic images of the human culture, by naming it The Pale Blue Dot. “Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home.”
What is a NFT collector? What are "the passions of the collector"? Are we preserving us by collecting NFT's?
Profile can be, if not the one, one of the most definitory things of our presence in a social network. Don't you think? And sometimes, with the use of hashtags, emerge a powerful shared vision and a genuine compromise to interact, like #Earthrise, #OverviewEffect, #SpaceshipEarth, #Space4Everyone, #ThereIsN oPlanetB or #ClimateAction.
The access, exploration and use of outer space were the dominion of Earth’s most powerful states and big corporations, mostly military-oriented. Not anymore. The spacecrafts were getting bigger, more complex, and more expensive. Not anymore. His vision of conquest, colonization, and explotation also in space was the only one existing. Not anymore. The paradigms of Space Age are changing, significantly and deeply. How? Why? Who are the new protagonists?
NANOSAT, the first illustrated history of the nanosatellites, try to give us the clues of this paramount change which, ultimately, will also shape human life in Earth. Step by step, each “trading card” illustrate the milestones of this unexpected and fascinating story of space democratization, of space for everyone
