Launching Today: The Space Acceleration Network
|
“All civilizations become either spacefaring or extinct.” - Carl Sagan, 1994. We are living through the most exhilarating period in human history — we are on the precipice of expanding and sustaining the fragile light of human consciousness upwards towards the infinite frontiers of space. This incredibly optimistic thread is occurring while humanity is simultaneously navigating increasingly volatile existential threats. The choice between expansion into the cosmos or degrowth into catastrophe is in our hands. Unlimited growth on a finite planet will eventually need resolution, will we break out in war over limited resources, or tap into the abundance beyond Earth? What will decide our fate? It starts with money.
The Space Acceleration Network is a decentralized startup society that connects space visionaries with the funding, tools, and support they need to turn bold ideas into a reality. We are launching today with some incredible partners, representing some of the most inspiring minds in the space ecosystem today. The goal of this network is to create the right synchronicities to have new ideas and collaborations emerge that will accelerate our progress in space. MoonDAO’s multi-million dollar treasury is powering and securing this new network.

During our latest town hall, Eiman sat down with Frank White to discuss his newly released book, A Heart for Space. The conversation covered the realities of commercial spaceflight, the burden of self-doubt, and the persistence...
