Summary/Abstract |
This paper defends, and emphasizes the importance of, spaceflight, broadly construed to include human and unmanned spaceflight, space science, exploration and development. Within this discourse, I provide counter-replies to remarks by physicist Dr. Steven Weinberg against my previous support of human spaceflight. In this defense of peaceful spaceflight I draw upon a variety of sources. Although a focus is human spaceflight, human and unmanned modes must not be treated as an either-or opposition. Rather, each has a critical role to play in moving humanity forward as a spacefaring species. In the course of this communication, I also stress the perennial role of space agencies as science and technology-drivers, and their function to provide a stable and unified platform for space programs.

Summary/Abstract |
Not only astronauts, but also many space-related scientists have made remarkable contributions to the development of a more philosophical view of society. These contributions are illustrated by numerous works produced by famous space pioneers at the end of their careers. The link between science and philosophy is well acknowledged, but the two disciplines suffered a schism some 350 years ago. Now one could ask the question of whether the time has not come to merge both disciplines again. This precise theme can be found in many works and papers written by space scientists. In attempting to create a better understanding of the relation between space and philosophy, it is worthwhile to consider some characteristics of the space workforce. Comparisons have been made between this workforce and so-called "corporate Ronins"-independent and unconventional thinkers who are attracted by the challenging environment offered by space activities. These individuals' presence in the space workforce could therefore be a viable explanation for the philosophical dimension associated with space activities.

Summary/Abstract |
India has now emerged as a major space-faring nation with notable accomplishments in the launch vehicle, satellite, space application and space exploration domains in spite of beginning its space programme from a disadvantageous position vis-à-vis other space-faring nations of the day, besides endeavouring entirely in the civilian domain. International cooperation played an important role during the genesis and the early evolution of the Indian space programme and has played a complimentary role during the progressive accumulation of India’s current space capabilities. Once a recipient of assistance in the domain of space, in the new millennium, India has achieved the status of an equal and even a major partner in some of the joint space endeavours with its erstwhile benefactors and has established facilities for training space personnel from developing countries of the Asia-Pacific region. This article critically reviews India’s international space cooperation endeavour in the past five decades and its influence on the country’s current space capabilities.
