By any modern standards of human endeavor and research, communications made possible by global navigation satellite systems and space transportation stand preeminent in the wonderment they offer. What began as exploration of outer space in the nineteen fifties and sixties is now full blown tourism in space. Added to that is the startling possibility of the existence of life in outer space which makes us not only think but wonder in amazement. Stephen Hawking – one of the world’s most eminent and knowledgeable physicists – has stated that in a universe with 100 billion galaxies, each containing hundreds of millions of stars, it is unlikely that life forms are present only on Earth. Hawking has also said: To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational. . . the real challenge is working out what aliens might actually be like1 . . . I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach.2 Against this bewildering backdrop, we continue to use and explore outer space, take pictures, calculate trajectories of planets and determine who owns the moon and what the purpose of outer space exploration is. An added dimension is the use of aerospace in terrestrial transportation where an aerospace plane will take off as an aircraft, go into orbit, enter the atmosphere using the Earth’s orbit into its destination, cutting the travel time significantly. It is said that by using this method, air travel time can be reduced drastically. For instance, a journey by air between Los Angeles and Sydney, which would now take 14 to 16 hours by conventional air travel, could take 2 hours or less. None of these technological feats would be possible without the advancement of information technology and computerized knowledge-sharing. However, with the advancement of this technology would also come the threat of cyber terrorism, which is a real cause of concern to astronomical science and space travel.
