The National Space Strategy is a form of interconnection between the ideas of scientific, technical leaders and the worldview of a wide range of voters. An essay.
When familiarizing with UK National space strategy (published 27 September 2021), one can recall the events of the middle of the 20th century, when the practical implementation of space achievements began.
One of the important events was the start of the V-2 missile launches towards the UK, towards London.
The implementation of the rocket project in Nazi Germany showed the existence of the problem of a significant difference between the ideas of scientific, technical leaders and the worldview of a wide range of voters.
In a democratic society, the worldview and the will of the voters have a significant impact on tax, budgetary and financial policies.
A wide range of voters are not inclined to serious expenditures on risky projects, on projects with unclear results, on projects requiring huge financial costs.
Accordingly, a democratic society finds itself in a situation where it chooses to maintain welfare, instead receiving a lag in important areas of science and technology.
Hitlerite Germany managed to create V-2 ballistic missiles, but did not manage to create nuclear charges (load) for them.
For a wide range of voters in the 19th and first half of the 20th century, space flights and works in the field of nuclear physics were highly controversial areas of activity that did not deserve huge efforts and colossal financial costs.
At present, the UK is faced with the task of joint participation with the United States in some deep space exploration projects (for example, flights to the Moon with the possible creation of a station in a circumlunar orbit and a base on the Moon). It is quite natural to expect that these projects will require significant additional costs on the part of the UK.
The question arises about the attitude to these additional costs on the part of wide circles of voters.
In addition, there are a number of areas of activity when the effect can be achieved without noticeable significant costs: the creation of new vectors in international, trade, financial, credit policy, reorientation of state structures to achieve new goals (and a number of other directions, fields).
Thus, the development and adoption of the National Space Strategy is an important form of interconnection between the ideas of scientific and technical leaders and the worldview of a wide range of voters.
