Resident Editor Wayne Smith
Hi and welcome to my little corner of this interwebby thing all the kids are raving on about. My name is Wayne Smith and I used to write articles for Space Daily. I also ran the forum. A short lived experiment which faced too much competition from other space forums and early social media to have ever really stood much of a chance. Now I just publish musings, inventions and discoveries here at substack to kill time when I’m not busy doing more mediocre things like hang-gliding.
We live in an exciting time. Myself and other writers used to get very frustrated and angry about the lack of any progress over previous decades. Apollo put a flag on the moon and then NASA just sort of gave up. Nobody else was trying either. Figures like Zubrin called for real reusable rockets and serious manned missions but nobody with any clout seemed to be listening. It seems a few people were though. Figures like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk brought the private sector to the rescue.
At the same time this started happening astronomy began paying dividends with the discovery of seemingly endless exoplanets. No longer speculative theoreticals. Now ever smarter AI, humanoid robots, space colonization and asteroid mining are on the horizon. All this could have happened much sooner. Progress isn’t a steady predictable path but the result of humans working to make it happen. Even biological immortality research is finally getting the attention it deserves. Which is great news for those of us who got old waiting for the second space age to happen. Now we have hope of being around long enough to enjoy it!
