Project IKAROS is the expression of one man's obsession with the quest to make reality that dream which has animated Man's steps for millenia; a dream given voice by a popular video production of Late-TwenCen America (q.v.) in the words:| "To boldly go where no one has gone before." | |
 |
Project IKAROS is a privately endowed corporate structure, organized, dedicated and focused to one singular purpose, expressed in this Mandate from its founder and Chairman: |
and the best of the works of Man, beyond the surface of this one world, so as to protect Man and the best of the works of Man, from destruction by the worst of the works of Man." | |
| There is, of course, one major Space project already under way here and now on planet Earth. Under the aegis of NASA, the nations of the Earth are engaged in the most ambitious project in the recorded history of the Human Race: the construction of the first permanently crewed facility in Earth Orbit.
