A beginning of open war against our technological civilization?
---------------------------------------------------------------
Recent terrorist attacks in the U.S.A., because of their scale 
and methods used, exhibit features of organized war against 
technologically advanced civilization on Earth, the only 
civilization currently capable of carrying on human expansion 
into space. These attacks, therefore, directly touch upon 
fundamental reasons for existence and activity 
of the URANOS Club.
If our civilization does not find enough strength - 
both material and spiritual - to defend itself against the 
attacks and to neutralize their causes, it may put off 
for an indefinite time prospects for lasting presence 
of mankind in space. That in turn will lead to gradual 
civilization decline and in consequence to a final downfall 
of mankind.

We would like our sympathizers and all who care for the future 
of human civilization to fully recognize the significance 
of these facts and take them into serious consideration.
