The Definitive "Why" of Space Exploration

At the Space Entrepreneurs in Seattle, WA, we are focused on the what of space exploration - the what being helping people advance their careers in space. Frank White has done an amazingly thorough job of exploring the "why" of space exploration in the Cosma Hypothesis. As Simon Sinek would say, it starts with why. We have the option to do things as we have always done them, or we could pursue a higher destiny and be a better version of ourselves through space exploration. It's my firm belief that by reading the Cosma Hypothesis, it will help you more firmly ground your reasons for exploring space in the why, and at a more planet-wide level. We all have our own reasons for being interested in space exploration, but Cosma will help you understand those within our society and the world as a whole. As a world-renonwed space philosopher and author of the now cult classic "Overview Effect," Frank takes his thinking to the next level about what this all means. With the rise of the commercialization of space, it's important that we think consciously about why we do this, so we can better inform our how, and Frank helps us do just that in the Cosma Hypothesis.
