Abstract
The exploration of outer space has already begun with rocket-launched instruments. Within this decade, human observers may also adventure above the earth's atmosphere to inaugurate a period of space exploration. Unlike the discovery of gold in California or the Klondike, these events and possibilities have been taken quite calmly by the public. Nevertheless “space” will profoundly affect the lives and opinions of all peoples from now on.Keywords
