16. Why Galaxy Education, Consciousness &
Awareness Are Important for the 21st Century:
General Education – for primary, secondary higher, and highest
education: Knowledge, understanding of humanity’s place in the
Universe – our Milky Way Galaxy occupies a mid-position domain
between Solar System finiteness and Cosmos infinity
Higher Education: Astrophysics / Astronomy – Galaxy studies
internationally are of increasing interest and value; study of our
local stellar neighborhood for familiarity; center / central 10
parsecs with supermassive black hole is most dynamic region of
Milky Way
History of Human Civilization / Archaeoastronomy
NASA, World Space Agencies – 21st Century Program and Policy
Development Advance through Galaxy understanding
Galacticity – may be as important for the 21st Century, as is
Relativity to 20th
