	Space Future - Space Habitat
		And because space is almost limitless humans are going to live there in vast numbers in the future - in other words, it will become a whole new habitat.
		At that time space activities will involve almost every industry - not just the aerospace industry but construction and interior design, catering and drinks, fashion and music, sports and entertainment, advertising and law, to name just a few.
		Living in space for long periods of time, or even permanently, is far more serious a prospect than merely staying for a few days or weeks.

	Maryland Sea Grant: Chesapeake Bay - Sense of Place (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		The powerful sense of place that visitors associate with a historic site such as Gettysburg National Battlefield is routinely, often unconsciously, to argue for the special treatment of those "hallowed grounds." Places are frequently restored or preserved based on their (allegedly) unique attributes.
		Although the academics and writers who introduced sense of place as a topic for debate thought of it as relatively static, something built over years and years, the realities of shifting populations mean that today's residents are likely to perceive place in an entirely different way than yesterday's.
		Place attachment can be political, particularly in that it highlights or "privileges" the remembered histories of some people and groups, although not always those of social and economic elites.

		These include "representations of space," "spatial practices," and "representational spaces." The model tends to distinguish professional practices such as planning (representations of space) from spatial patterns of everyday life (spatial practices) from the symbolic meanings enacted in spatial form (representational spaces).
		The community is a representational space that encompasses the memory of a time and place, a fulfilling way of life and also a dream for the future.
		Space, then, does not stand for anything, it is the development, play and interchangeability of signification.

	The Space Settlement Initiative
		The settlement of space would benefit all of humanity by opening a new frontier, energizing our society, providing room and resources for the growth of the human race without despoiling the Earth, and creating a lifeboat for humanity that could survive even a planet-wide catastrophe.
		Space claims based on anything less than settlement would be virtually impossible to justify to the courts and the world.
		Although classic land grants cannot be used in space because sovereignty is prohibited, the objective of land claims recognition in space is the same as the objective of land grants on Earth: the use of property rights as an incentive to get private individuals to do something of great value to the whole society.

	Howstuffworks "How Space Stations Work"
		For some, space stations are a place to do cutting edge scientific research in an environment that can not be matched on Earth.
		Still others dream of space stations as staging points for expeditions to the planets and stars, as tourist attractions, or even as new cities and colonies that could relieve an overpopulated planet.
		The United States and Russia have had orbiting space stations since 1971 and are now cooperating with other nations to build the International Space Station, a place that will maintain a permanent human presence in space.

	The Concept of Space (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		The move from material to space, as the location for architectural essence in the early 1890, changed this notion and consequently attracted a whole range of art historians, painters and sculptors to the field of architecture.
		“ … all possible aspects of the perception of space can be reduced to four: a) planimetric or two-dimensional space, b) one-point-perspective or three-dimensional space, c) ‘irrational’ space-time, or four-dimensional space, d) imaginary space as produced by motion pictures.
		Geometry and objectivity are the vehicles to abolish man’s alienation with the invisible and, therefore, mysterious universal space”.

	Space Official in Beijing Reveals Dual Purpose of Shenzhou
		The US space policy toward China is carefully designed to block any channel of cooperation fearing the Chinese would acquire U.S. space technology through such contacts, he told the audience.
		It was unusual that a Chinese space official stressed the military functions of the Shenzhou missions and criticized the US space policy at the same time in a public lecture, although observers in the West have long speculated the dual purpose of China's human spaceflight program.
		Zhang also announced that a space lab would be placed in orbit in 2007, which could be attended by two to three astronauts periodically.

		Benson, head of the Space Development Corporation, presented his plans for the Near Earth Asteroid Prospector (NEAP), a privately-funded spacecraft that would be the first private spacecraft to leave Earth orbit and visit an asteroid, with the intent of staking a claim for future mining.
		Jeff Krukin of the Space Frontier Foundation was more direct, calling past space activism a "complete failure." He called for a new type of activism, focused on the statement "space is a place, not a program," with an emphasis on activities in Earth orbit and on the Moon.
		No longer do people have to fight a public who is apathetic or antagonistic to space, but instead the opposition is a "well-meaning and educated public that believes space is a sacred place that should be protected from the ravages of humanity," he said.

	Space, Place and the Virtual University
		These changes all have implications for the geographical organisation of higher education - that is, questions of space and place.
		By contrasting the concept of the virtual university with its concrete manifestations in the case studies, the project teases out some of the contradictions and tensions between the idea of the virtual university and its emergence in practice.
		In broader policy terms, the research contributes to the debate on the changing nature and role of the university in the 21st Century, in particular focusing on the relationship of the university to space and place.

	HobbySpace - Space History
		They spend innumerable hours reading about space history events such as the Space Race, and pride themselves on knowing not only the important facts but also the trivia that makes the period come alive.
		Space exploration has had great impact on many individuals, especially during the space race beginning in the late 1950's.
		Rocket launches, for example, are restricted to short periods of the year due to objections from a small, but politically powerful, fishing lobby that claims that the noise bothers the fish and that falling boosters might hit their boats.

	Space: The Final [Archaeological] Frontier
		In what may be the first instance of funded space archaeology research, a team led by Beth O'Leary, a New Mexico State University archaeologist, is studying legal ownership of artifacts and structures in space, and how one might go about documenting and preserving them.
		If one accepts the idea of archaeological research on sites from the history of human exploration in space, it is hardly a giant leap to consider the potential for archaeological fieldwork on the evidence of extraterrestrial civilizations.
		Though she read the English words on the bag as "Breakfast Drink, Orange," all the mass spec revealed was sugar, fructose, titanium dioxide (which apparently accounted for the bright orange color), xanthum gum, cellulose gum, and two chemicals she knew had been listed as poisons for more than a century--Yellow 5 and Yellow 6.

	Is Nasa The Greatest Obstacle To Space Enterprise?
		If at that time NASA had begun to turn over space activities to the private sector, space stations and Moon bases might be a reality today.

		"For not only does the community of money, coupled with a rationalized space and time, define them in an oppositional sense, but the movements have to confront the question of value and its expression as well as the necessary organization of space and time appropriate to their own reproduction.
		Capital, in short, continues to dominate, and it does so in part through superior command over space and time, even when opposition movements gain control over a particular place for a time" (238-39).
		The construction of such places, the fashioning of some localized aesthetic image, allows the construction of some limited and limiting sense of identity in the midst of a collapse of imploding spatialities" (303).
