To Live And Work In Space

 
Calgary Space Workers Society
( CSW )
Operating as a Science Club Since October 4,2004
In partnership, chapter and/or in affiliations with the

Calgary Space Frontier Society
Moon Society
National Space Society Chapter
Canadian Space Society
SEDS
Canada
Goldray Industries Ltd.  
The CSW are a science fact club building the future in space


We are a science club building a demonstrator on earth of a facility that could sustain life on the moon
We will later build a prototype then the working model
 Apply to join today, it is bold and exciting challenge
Join us by registering on the Meetup network and come to some lectures, events or activities. As you become a full fledged member you can get involved in projects and events that challenge you in many ways.
CLICK HERE TO JOIN 
 
Non-Members, we are primarily a blue collar but welcome white collar as well. We are a adult science club with discussion on science that maybe a little challenging for younger aged groups. Children under 18 must have an adult with them. Please contact the Captain or seek nomination from an active member before attending meetings. Blue collar and white collar are treated equal. Also, if you have a hobby or project that you want to tell us about or fits our mission, please know that your passion is exciting to us as well.

 
The members are maintaining the vision of our club.  The reason members are involved is to expand on their potential. All of us have a potential that is above what we do for work in our daily lives. The CSW offer a chance for people to do something pperceived at a glance to be impossible , to move forward with ideas that they can visualize as reality. Members are driven by a desire to become involved in a difficult and complex challenge. 

Get involved this summer this is a big one
We need your help  to make this happen, we need our members to come together for the next wave of progress for the Calgary Space workers. We need new members to join and become involved as well. Starting this June, 2012 we will have at Homestead museum in Drumheller Alberta a demonstrator lunar habitat/living quarters.
We need volunteers to setup and live in the lunar base demonstrator. We need volunteers who want to be involved and make this happen the best is can be done.
The will be opportunity to converse with the public and opportunity to simulate living on the moon. There will be opportunity to help us set up the habitat and even take on some small projects or integrate your personal hobbies into our lunar habitat.
GO TO MEETUP CALGARY TO START SIGNING UP SO WE CAN GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER AND GET STARTED RIGHT AWAY

Founded, October 4, 2004. The day SpaceShipOne rocketed into history, becoming the first private manned spacecraft to exceed an altitude of 328,000 feet twice within 14 days

Meeting Schedule

We are meeting every second Saturday

We have several meetings that are through the 
Meetup Network
 where we meet as a group to visit conferances, trade shows, science fairs, tours of facilities and talks with promanent speakers.

We have many members that have jobs and businesses in the fields of technology. We would enjoy being invited to tour your workplace. We also accept invitations to speak at functions and have done elementry, middle and Sr. High schools not to mention educational institutions. We dont charge a fee but do ask that we be able to extend invitations to staff or parents to become members of the Calgary Space Workers Society.

Make a profile on Meetup with your first name and join a meeting. Note that you will not be swamped with email when providing and email address as we pay meetup to be on their site and
we are the only ones that get your email address that you provide.

Join us at the Lilac Festival on Sunday May 27, 2012 to see what it is all about . We will be located at Earls Restaurant 2401-4 Street SW. Members, please note that we need a hand talking to the public about what we are doing this summer.

Our Vision

We at CSW are a group of workers with a desire
"To Live And Work In Space"

Our Mission

To allow the rapid expansion of human development and the development of infrastructure for space. We will do this by providing a means to train individuals for the future of space colonization. We will make available funds and materials to construct infrastructure for space development



There is no looking back as we create the demonstrator, prototype then the
working model of our moon habitat and research station.


The demonstrator:
Our members will be building a Hard-shell Analog Headquarters, the Hard-shell Manufacturing shop, the Connecting Inflatable Corridor, the Inflatable Wetlands Biosphere Module and the Inflatable Sleeping Quarters Module.
 Later the members will build their own personal inflatable or mobile habitats that will accompany the groups project.


If you are interested in getting involved, contact us or a member
who will nominate you for membership

Our Principles
We support all space initiatives, but we do not lobby for any one initiative or group
We support space tourism, but work toward Transmigration and autonomy
We uphold the right to private space faring
We strive to build a more peaceful world in space

Our Goals
Ultimately Mars for Colonization inclusive of restoration of its ancient ecology
The moon is the necessary stepping-stone
We will in time build a demonstrator, prototype then actual habitat to live and work in space
We will in time build and launch our own spaceship

Projects on the go.........
A fully functional analog space/moon habitat and research station project to demonstratate and learn more about building our prototype and working model.
