It takes time…
It REALLY takes time – to find a WordPress theme that suits you, and doesn’t cost a fortune for the “Premium version” – which in reality is an add-on with plugins you can find for free elsewhere.
Everybody wants to make money out of everything…
People can’t just stop thinking about making money.
I don’t! At least not in the same way.
Well – yes – I want to make money – don’t take me wrong – I’ve got a family, a wonderful daughter, bills to pay, from mortgages to phone bills – you name it…
However, I’m willing to create things for free – and let other people use them without paying a dime.
SpaceChain is one of them. (You can find more information about it at http://www.spacechain.org )
It must’ve cost me at least $100 000, minimum, over the years since I started the project back in 2012, still working as a CSO (Chief Security Officer) at one of the world’s first (and Sweden’s first) Bitcoin exchange, BTCX, until I incorporated it in 2016, and then started building everything you can imagine.
Fast-forward to 2021 – Now I even control 4 satellites in geostationary orbits!
Yeah – for real! Big chunks of multi-billion dollar electronics, in Earth orbit.
Be jealous – I don’t care… They’re available for anyone to use anyway?
Well – I didn’t build them – they were “decommissioned” because of different reasons. One is even a military spy satellite (or was supposed to be) with a gigapixel camera, among other things like a piece of state-of-art SIGINT equipment that can detect, track (but not listen – although list the number) a phone (or any electronic device that emits more than 1 mW) on Earth – or even tap in on a single copper thread and give me more information than I can handle. Now imagine – I can listen to every WiFi on the planet – and I don’t need to crack any passwords – the Chinese have already built “Free internet”-boxes, that you can buy for like $20 USD, that cracks the passwords for you in minutes, often seconds…
The country that built the satellite, abandoned it and left it there in orbit because its thrusters malfunctioned – something that actually was fixable, so I guess they really wish they could undo the contract now – and the fuel tanks are at 99%. Thank you Mr. P.
However… If I turned the camera towards Earth, I could see things you wouldn’t imagine, rendering Google Earth useless – but however, turning a camera in space towards Earth, requires special permission – so I don’t. Officially…
It can’t be used as a space telescope, unfortunately, as it’s built for spying on things on our planet, not looking for aliens among the billions of stars of the Milky Way… It would be so cool…
But hey… How would they know what I do with a camera that’s almost 40 000 km above their heads? (The authorities)
I had to buy 8 Dell PowerEdge servers, some with 4 CPU’s and 64 cores each CPU, fiber-channels, A LOT of hard-drives, and A LOT of memory (RAM) – just to be able to handle the traffic of information beaming down from the sky…
And that’s only 4 satellites – there’re literally thousands of “space junk”, that can be recycled in the same manner, instead of being a hazard for any kind of space travel.
However – nations – waste taxpayer’s money instead of really trying hard to fix the problem(s).
I started simple, in my workshop – now, I own the only truly decentralized space agency on the planet.
Don’t believe me?

I don’t want to drop names, but a millionaire, hijacked my company’s name, SpaceChain – even copied some of my, and at the time CTO’s ideas, and called it “his”, and claimed on social media sites that he was the creator of SpaceChain.
He even tried to buy me out – but the thing was that I didn’t do it for money – so I said no.
Anyways… I’m not writing all this to brag – so let me get to the point… I did it for the good of all mankind – for the survival of our species – because space travel, believe it or not, is the key to our survival. (It’s pretty easy math – if we live on two or more planets, humans will survive if something like an ELE (Extinction Level Event) happens – let alone a climate change that’s going to make the movie “The day after tomorrow” a really big underestimation of what’s really going to happen.
Just take a look at this winter – you missed something really big as you were all busy with the ongoing pandemic: because of some minor disturbance in the wind patterns over the artic, it snowed in Saudi Arabia, and a lot of other places that never seen snow for 40 000 years, and Texas in the U.S was declared a catastrophe zone, where a little boy froze to death in his own bed!
And that was a minor disturbance. Try to imagine the consequences, when major things start to happen.
You really think you can “fix” the climate, that’s been shattered into pieces, with ecosystems around the world, failing and dying on a daily basis?
Then you’ve got a magic wand or THINK you’ve got one!
I’m sorry Greta – I’m on your side – but it’s already too late… Way too late…
You see… To fix the global climate, you need to go back all the way to the ’60s, and change a lot of things – even the way of our life, because we’re already in the middle of it – and as far as I’m concerned, there’re no time-machines and none are going to be invented. Ever.
Sure – quantum mechanics, wormholes, CTC (Closed Time Circuits) – it’s not impossible to build a time-machine – in theory – but practically, it’s beyond impossible. It is – or we wouldn’t have any climate problems right now, and I wouldn’t be writing these words or addressing the issue.
The answer is simple – if you want to save the climate – we need to build space travel on a very, very large scale. Nations have to stop competing and unite under one single space agency, decentralized, available to everyone – every living soul on the planet.
To start building infrastructure here on Earth, on the Moon, on Mars, in orbit – and then – MAYBE, we shall be able to create a chance to save the climate.
How practically?
Well – that’s the topic of my next blog update.
Stay tuned, see you soon.
