What is Space?

August 16th, 2007

Should this article belong in ‘Philosophy’ or space? Philosophy because I asked a question; space is just another alternative.

Oxford English dictionary definition:
“the physical universe beyond the earth’s atmosphere.”

Not to me it doesn’t. What space really means is freedom. When I look up at the stars at night, I think the world as a cage. Man’s freedom on his own soil is the first step to a new frontier. Space, the man said, is another question.

Website Progress

August 16th, 2007

I’ve added a whole host of useful plugins to the website, and started to integrate forum software for the community. After which all I would need to do is apply the design. If your at all interested, this is what I am aiming for the website to look like: click here.

Switched to WordPress

August 15th, 2007

I have switched from MovableType to WordPress. The previous system proved too complex for me to handle. I could have put up with it, and infact it was probably better for what I am wanting to do, but I just don’t have the time to be learning anything new.

Welcome!

August 15th, 2007

Welcome to SpaceHalo - a website soon to discuss the topic of space, futurology and philosophy. This is a quick first post just while I get everything sorted out.

The design you see here is not final [as of post date]; I have yet to figure out how to configure the template system. In the near future I am hoping to develop this blog into an interactive community.

I may not have much time to continue with this project after the holidays, but I’ll try my best to keep you updated.

Your friendly neighbourhood admin,
Daniel Sefton.
