ABSTRACT
I
The world cosmonautics, the sphere of space ac-
tivity is at a difficult stage of choosing a new paradigm and de-
velopment strategy. The article presents a periodization of the
Space Age; basic concepts and definitions are given. The con-
cept of further space exploration is proposed, which includes
four interrelated super global projects: 1) Earth protection
system from asteroid-comet hazard; 2) The Moon Exploration;
3) The Mars Exploration; 4) Cosmic Humanity. The mankind
is embarking on the practical implementation of super global
projects, so a transition to a new technological order along
with fundamentally new technologies are necessary. A new
wave of space exploration is rising in the world; the bounda-
ries of the space activity are expanding. The humanity has to
reach a new level of space exploration through creating and
implementing of a global strategy that will combine new super
global projects and effective, clean, environmentally friendly
technologies and projects.
