SRI started a world wide crowdfunding campaign, to support the development of the Space Renaissance Tour. The main themes of the Tour will be: establishing Low Cost Access to Earth Orbit, addressing the issues of the Protection of Civilian Life and Health in Space, and advocating for a suitable set of Laws for the global governance of activities in Outer Space, i.e. to collate, and extend international civilian rights in space.

The SRI first World Congress had been held five years ago, in 2011. Since then, many things have changed, finally the space frontier initiated the opening process. The fully reusable rockets’ had first successful experimentation, this year, and the obsolete monopole of spendable rockets is finally broken. Fully reusable rockets are now a reality, thanks to a collaboration between the new space industry — Elon Musk’s SpaceX — and NASA.

Thirty years after the Declaration on the Right to Development, we have to acknowledge that many analysts paint a dismal picture of the status of civilization in spite of meaningful advances in education, longevity, civil rights, malnourishment, poverty and in other critical societal areas.

Space Renaissance International will hold its 2nd World Congress from September 30th to October 2nd. The Congress will be held online, via SKYPE chat, 3 hours per day starting at 15:00 GMT. The title of the congress is “From Space Exploration to Space Settlement”. Our main goal is to update our analysis and strategy, and to share this discussion with the highest number of renaissance men and women, that we are sure greatly outnumber SRI supporters, worldwide! We propose that world leaders need to understand that humanity urgently requires a change in direction from exploring space to developing civilian activities in space, finding ways to create human space settlements. A global renaissance is fighting the global crisis, producing social, technological and scientific transformations: in order to win, it needs to be taken off planet, to be a space renaissance!
