Krononaut Moon 🌕 2025 Mar 14<p>The <a href="https://aus.social/tags/KrononautMoon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KrononautMoon</span></a> Project is an ongoing series of community experiments to contact <a href="https://aus.social/tags/TimeTravelers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TimeTravelers</span></a> — as "in-person", but more likely via <a href="https://aus.social/tags/quantum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quantum</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/signal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>signal</span></a>. The next attempt is coming up soon on 14 Mar 2025 — under the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/TotalLunarEclipse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TotalLunarEclipse</span></a> — wherever you are. These outreaches are sometimes referred to as "landing receptions", but call them or redesign them however you like. Following is a brief, all-true <a href="https://aus.social/tags/chronology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronology</span></a> of such <a href="https://aus.social/tags/events" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>events</span></a>, going back 40+ years. The excerpt is from our detailed <a href="https://aus.social/tags/article" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>article</span></a> on Medium.com.</p><p>❛❛ <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Future" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Future</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/intelligences" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>intelligences</span></a> would have the necessary transport <a href="https://aus.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technology</span></a> that is not yet existent in our <a href="https://aus.social/tags/world" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>world</span></a>. To date, there have been 5 recorded attempts of this method, with the most famous one devised by the late <a href="https://aus.social/tags/theoretical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>theoretical</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/physicist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physicist</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/StephenHawking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StephenHawking</span></a>, in <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Cambridge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cambridge</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a> on 2009 Jun 28.</p><p>Hawking referred to his get-together as a “reception”—what we now think of as a version type 1.0. His champagne toast to “tourists from the future” was, by no means, not the first of the prototypes, however, because it was staged years after 3 similar experimental attempts — stationed in different <a href="https://aus.social/tags/countries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>countries</span></a> and unrelated to each other. The professor’s cheeky soirée occurred four years after a rollicking party that was thrown for “Inhabitants of the Future” at Forrest Place, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Perth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Perth</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AU</span></a>, on 2005 Mar 31. Then, a few months later, an equally festive <a href="https://aus.social/tags/TimeTraveler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TimeTraveler</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Convention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Convention</span></a> was hosted at <a href="https://aus.social/tags/MIT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MIT</span></a> — The <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Massachusetts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Massachusetts</span></a> Institute of Technology, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Cambridge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cambridge</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/MA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MA</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a>, on 2005 May 07. These elaborate productions were preceded by a full two decades, back when a group identifying itself as the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Krononauts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Krononauts</span></a> assembled in <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Baltimore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Baltimore</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/MD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MD</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> (alt. spelling: <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Chrononauts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chrononauts</span></a>). That seminal event, which was covered by a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/NewYorkTimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NewYorkTimes</span></a> reporter, happened at a downtown <a href="https://aus.social/tags/bookstore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstore</span></a>, under the light of a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FullMoon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FullMoon</span></a>, and a multi-planetary <a href="https://aus.social/tags/syzygy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>syzygy</span></a>, on 1982 Mar 09. </p><p>More recently, in the spring of 2023, a dogged <a href="https://aus.social/tags/podcaster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcaster</span></a> for TheLastArchive.com and Pushkin.fm, published a riveting and droll <a href="https://aus.social/tags/audio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>audio</span></a> recounting of Baltimore’s Krononauts gathering, and then gave the concept a uniquely personal <a href="https://aus.social/tags/experimental" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>experimental</span></a> spin, noting the time and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/GPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GPS</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/coordinates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>coordinates</span></a>.
