Dimming of Starlight
«A handful of philosophers can write effectively for a broad audience. The same holds true for scientists. Gonzalo Munévar can do both, showing an audience that has little prior knowledge of either philosophy or space exploration why both fields are important, and how these seemingly disparate enterprises can work together to help us decide how aggressively to pursue some of the greatest mysteries we face today." - Douglas Vakoch, President, METI International»

«There is no doubt that in the third decade of the 21st century, the idea of advanced and long-term space exploration, especially human missions, requires a wise and comprehensive justification. Such wise and comprehensive justification is an extremely difficult art. Repeating general cliches today is no longer enough. This art of philosophical, in-depth justification for space exploration has been perfectly succeeded by Gonzalo Munévar." - Konrad Szocik, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszow»
