Required question 1 (exact ID: question-1) Does the official source support the opportunity identity, status, timing, eligibility, and access constraints?
Required question 2 (exact ID: question-2) Is the proposed fit specific and proportionate without implying availability, invitation, selection, or funding?
Required question 3 (exact ID: question-3) What deadline, rule, jurisdiction, cost, conflict, or accessibility fact would change the proposed next action?
Explicit exclusions
Review does not submit, register, apply, contact, commit, purchase, or establish eligibility.
Provider prestige and apparent fit cannot replace current official terms.
Frozen-evidence decision window: 30 days from the packet freeze. Not applicable to this packet family.
Complete primary record set
Every record below has one primary packet owner. Decisions must bind to the exact record and packet fingerprints; a changed lesson body, evidence grade, citation, locator, source snapshot, requirement, policy, release, or commit expires the old packet.
Active call: presentation abstracts are due August 16, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time; the in-person convention is October 22–24, 2026 in Los Angeles.

Eligibility
The official public submission form requests an affiliation, talk title, abstract of no more than 300 words, track preference, format preference, and speaking experience; it does not establish acceptance or GShips eligibility.
Access Notes
Presentations are in person only, with no virtual presentation option. A generation-ship talk would need a tightly bounded Mars or settlement-technology contribution rather than a generic interstellar vision.
Founder Action
Develop a distinct, evidence-bounded abstract on settlement assurance or Earth-first closed-habitat systems, then seek separate authorization before submitting or registering.
Evidence Boundary
Official convention and official abstract-submission pages reviewed. Dates, word limit, in-person requirement, and requested fields are public; acceptance criteria, costs, and eligibility beyond the form were not independently established.
Relationship
indexed only; no formal relationship
Action Status
proposed; not undertaken
Conflicts
Close thematic adjacency could blur the distinction between Mars-settlement advocacy and GShips' contingency framing; no institutional or financial conflict was independently investigated.
What Would Change
A call amendment, deadline extension, remote option, program-track revision, or acceptance decision would change the assessment.
Source inclusion does not determine the disposition. Reviewers must inspect the cited locator and relation, note inaccessible material, and identify stronger or conflicting evidence.
Sources, verification dates, scope notes, and exact fingerprints
Official convention and official abstract-submission pages reviewed. Dates, word limit, in-person requirement, and requested fields are public; acceptance criteria, costs, and eligibility beyond the form were not independently established.
Downloads contain no reviewer contact details. Downloading does not create an account or store a review response in the GShips application. Ordinary provider request or analytics logs may record the download request. Work locally: the public site has no review account, upload endpoint, or decision-submission API.
Do not paste a completed decision, identity documents, private contact data, confidential conflict evidence, medical information, controlled material, or exploit details into a public form. Until a separately authorized private handoff exists, retain the completed worksheet locally.
Add another --decision for each independent reviewer.
Interpret the result narrowly. A zero exit proves structural consistency only. Neither command appoints or qualifies a reviewer, establishes independence, accepts a decision, or authorizes publication.
Every primary record must receive the required number of valid, current-fingerprint approvals; every complementary scope group and required domain must be covered; any unresolved revise, contest, or reject disposition blocks publication.
Named medical, reproductive, nuclear, radiation, cybersecurity, governance, and dual-use conclusions require two distinct qualified independent humans covering complementary domain-method and rights/public-interest scopes.
Reviewer identity, qualification, independence, conflicts, and compensation must be assessed by accountable human governance; local validation can only report structural validity.
Approve, revise, contest, reject, and recuse remain visible. A negative finding cannot be hidden by an aggregate approval percentage.
Revision creates a new record and packet fingerprint. Prior approvals do not carry forward automatically.
AI may assist with clerical comparison but cannot count as an independent reviewer, identity attestor, appeal authority, or second person.

Assumptions and limits
The exact packet, record, source, policy, release, and source-commit fingerprints bound this prepared page; human review has not started.
Downloading, local structural validation, or completing notes does not appoint or qualify a reviewer, establish independence, accept a decision, authorize publication, or create a relationship.
What would change this page?
Staffed governance, appointed qualified reviewers, completed record-level decisions, published conflicts, minority findings, corrections, or changed review policy would change this page.
