T ime is a threefold present: the present as we ex- perience it, the past as a present memory, and the future as a present expectation. — St. Augustine. If what St. Augustine wrote is true, then tomor- row is already here. The future is now. The goal is to try to ascertain whether ten, twenty-five, one hundred or even a thousand years hence, the decisions made today to do or not to do something will have a good or harmful effect The space shuttle Discovery is part of the future as we know it today upon men and women living at that future time, says Her- man Kahn in the foreword to The Future. Kahn concludes, Clearly technology interacts with values, new technological development is largely dependent upon the values that led to the decision to develop it or to forgo its development. The space shuttle Discovery, shown here, is part of the future as we know it today. Harold Goodwin stated in Space: Frontier Unlimited, published in 1962, There are many reasons for going to the moon, and space science is one. The point is that no one has tried to justify the lunar program on scientific grounds alone. The moon as an objective has been misunderstood. The moon is a national goal to be reached, if possible, before the end of the decade, but the first manned landing is only a focus, and a beginning. While Goodwin was by no means shortsighted, one wonders if he and his NASA contemporaries could have envi- sioned what America ' s space program includes today: space manufacturing, potential for military operations, astronomical observatories, communication technology , a manned space station and satellite recovery. John Naisbitt, author of Megatrends, says the successful flight of the first space shuttle in 1981 was far more impor- tant to society in this century than to any future age of space exploration because shuttles can launch satellites. As the information age emerges, he says, technology like that of the space shuttle will enhance an emerging global village in which instantaneously shared information and com- munication is no longer an idea of the future but is a reality. On board Discovery are astronauts Frederick H. (Rick) Hauck. David M. Walker. Joseph P. Allen, Anna L. Fisher and Dale A. Gardner. NASA Space Shuttle
