For All Humankind: Peaceful, Ethical, Cooperative, and Curiosity‐Driven Space Science and Space Weather Research

Abstract Are we moving into a new reality where the next human stepping onto a different world will utter “That's one small step for me, a giant leap for my country”? Is further tightening Heliophysics and space weather research to military endeavors the solution to the decrease in federal funding for Heliophysics in the US and the worldwide increase in military budget? I invite researchers to take the time to contemplate those issues and to continue pushing for an ethical, peaceful, cooperative, and curiosity‐driven space science and space weather research.
