GENESIS
Asgardia began with selecting the nation’s name. In ancient mythology, Asgard is a dwelling place of the gods, the celestial home of dreams.
The concept of Space "Noah's" Ark, as the savior of human race and entire terrestrial gene pool, formed the basis of Asgardian scientific researches and paradigm of Asgardia space infrastructure.
MISSION
The birth of the first Space Child on the Noah’s Space Ark is the main mission of Asgardia. The implementation of this mission will create the basis for reproduction of human population in space. The emblem of our mission is a schematic representation of a space ark with a newborn baby (space child) on board, where cosmic radiation protection and artificial gravity are provided.

The main legal goal is the creation of an independent state recognised by other countries on planet Earth.
New space law should not become the law of the jungle. Space exploration will be equally available to all earthly nations and to all people.
A core legal principle is that Asgardia does not interfere in relations between states on Earth – and vice versa.
LEGAL
The geopolitical conflicts on Earth, deep-rooted in the history of Earthly nations, stand in the way of creating a new, fair legal reality in space.

territory in space.
ASGARDIA ON EARTH
We are a Space Nation, but we reside on Earth. Asgardia don’t see Earthly borders and don’t create borders in space. A unique map of Asgardia shows the location of Asgardians on planet Earth. The map shows Earthly cities with the number of Asgardians residing in each of them.
