Asgardia - The Space Nation
https://asgardia.space/en/
Not sure if there is any interest here in becoming a citizen of the first space nation but you can apply for citizenship at the link above.
Sounds more realistic than Mars One and the application is free and easy. Looks like there is still less than 1/4 million citizens right now but the number is growing fast.

It looks like they will launch the satellite later this year and there is still time to get a picture or text sent on it.
I'm still not recommending anyone sign up. Check it out and decide for yourself. I just thought it sounded like something members of this group might be interested in.
One of the long term goals of Asgardia is to protect Earth from space threats including from man made orbital debris.
There is already a lot of debris and satellites orbiting the Earth and I agree that we could easily trap ourselves here. I don't know how realistic Asgardia's goals are but cleaning up the junk orbiting around Earth sounds like a good idea.
One of the reasons I posted anything about this on this group was the possibility of grants and scholarships. Some of the projects and ideas I have seen on this group sound like things that might interest people planing to eventually live and work in space. Right now joining is just a matter of filling out a little information and agreeing to their constitution. Later, if it becomes an actual nation, becoming a citizen might be more involved.
It isn't really biohacking related and I'm not going to argue politics.
