Last night we concluded our fundraising effort and raised over $172k from 157 contributions. This is a huge win for the Overview Effect.

We've created massive awareness for Frank's work and seen the Overview Effect all over Artemis II, in the news, podcasts, and social media. All over the world the concept is gaining massive traction, and our campaign has helped push the idea forward. With that awareness alone this campaign has been a success. However, our most important goal is to send Frank and one other contributor to space, and now we enter a new phase: seat procurement.

We're committed to send Frank to space, and are optimistic that we can do so. Over the next 30 days we will work hard to make sure Frank gets to space, and ideally that someone from our leaderboard joins him. We will fight hard for this outcome!!

The leaderboard will remain active for the next 14 days, so people can still vote on citizens that they would like to go to space with Frank. If we are only able to secure one seat to space for Frank, the winner of our contest will get a prize like a zero gravity flight or equivalent. We will update you all soon with more information.

This is only the beginning in Frank's journey to space, and we thank each and every one of the people who took the time and energy to contribute from the bottom of our hearts.

Let's get Frank to Space!!

If you missed the Space-A-Thon, which ran for 16 hours yesterday, you can catch the full recording on X. Stay tuned for individual segments being uploaded soon.
