Ronan's Amazing Adventures On Spaceship Earth
A synergetics fable for old and young alike!
Ronan and his friends, Calen and Liam, get a surprise visit from the reknowned scientist and philosopher, Buckminster Fuller. Bucky has traveled to Spaceship Earth aboard his Dymaxion Spaceship, a cool travel ship that works faster and more efficiently than anything we have on earth. As they take off with him on their, Bucky tells the children, "We are all astronauts on this little spaceship called Earth."
During their amazing adventures, the children come to unlearn much of what they have been taught from the old "flat Earth" models still in use and relearn to look at their world from an interconnected, multidimensional perspective.
When they ask Bucky why they need to know these things, he says tells them, "You children are the next caretakers of our little planet - the next pilots of Spaceship Earth. You are the future. What you do, how you think, creates the future. The most important job you have in assuming your caretakership of Spaceship Earth is to learn to think for yourselves, from your own experience, to discover the truth, and most importantly, to dare to really love completely. I invite you to start on this journey of discovery with me right now. Because, I know with certainty that when we find out the truth for ourselves, we will succeed in making the world better a better place for all living beings!"
Bucky's lessons quickly transform into a new way of thinking for the children. They discover Bucky's vision of a world that works for everyone and realize how much sense it makes to them. They start to really understand how they are connected to each other and to all things in Universe. And they begin to see how each of them can truly make a difference for everyone.

"From my viewpoint, by far the greatest challenge facing the young people today is that of responding and conforming only to their own most delicately insistent intuitive awarenesses of what the truth seems to them to be as based on their own experiences and not on what others have interpreted to be the truth regarding events of which neither they nor others have experienced-based knowledge."
