The Space Development Steering Committee founding statement reads like this:
For close to 40 years, the space community has been developing new dreams, new schemes for making life a multiplanetary project--for taking ecosystems and you, me, and our children into permanent homes in space. The Space Development Steering Committee is dedicated to making those private visions public. And The Space Development Steering Committee is dedicated to giving a vast new frontier to the grand experiment of life, to the family of DNA.
The Space Development Steering Committee has five active projects as of April 2008--including two TV series in development and a global space event to be held in India. The Committee is small, imaginative, and informal. It has no web page or other self-promotional accoutrements.
