Dear Friends and Colleagues, After 40 years of interviewing astronauts about their experiences of the Overview Effect, I decided it was time for me to see the Earth from a distance myself! Working with MoonDAO and an army of supporters, we launched a fundraising campaign on March 12 to secure a flight on a stratospheric balloon, suborbital hop, or something beyond. If we raise enough funds, a member of the space community will go with me. This is an inflection point in human history. Either “Overview Thinking” or “Surface Thinking” will dominate our future. Look all around you to see what Surface Thinking produces. There is an alternative, and it’s called “Bringing the Overview Effect Down to Earth.” Our campaign ends on April 27. Please watch this short video and then go to MoonDAO.com/Frank to join our mission.
Thank you, Frank Frank White Author, The Overview Effect: Space Exploration and Human Evolution |

Hey everyone: We've made some updates to the overview flight terms and conditions based on a few pieces of new information: Some of the funds we’ve raised so far have come in off-chain (checks), while others have been direct ETH contributions through the website. Our current refund language only references the ETH committed to the contract, with refunds calculated solely on on-chain ETH raised after the fundraise ends. We may be able to negotiate a seat for Frank at a discounted price. To...
