Still want to fly with Frank White?

Published 4 months ago • 1 min read

Hey Reader,

The campaign to send Frank White to space is live again, and the contest to fly alongside him is back on.

Join us LIVE TODAY at 3pm ET to celebrate the reopening and learn all the details.

Nothing from the first raise has been spent, every dollar is still held, and every original backer keeps their place in the story. After a month of calls with spaceflight providers across three continents and a community vote on where to go next, the answer came back loud and clear: finish what we started.

So we are. And a few things are new:

A reachable goal. Our near-term target is $250,000, enough to lock in a guaranteed second seat on a stratospheric flight. Frank's seat is the floor we're building on; this milestone is about making good on the original promise: sending a member of our community up with him.
Early backers win. $OVERVIEW now opens at 500 per ETH.
Contributing is effortless. We rebuilt the flow end to end, including an Apple Pay on-ramp. Backing a real spaceflight now takes seconds, whether or not you've ever touched crypto.

And one we can only hint at: there's a bigger, contingent prize on the table. Pending live negotiations, we could unlock a dedicated, premium mission. We won't promise it until the ink is real. But the ceiling is high.

If that's enough to get you in, moondao.com/frank is where it happens. If you want the whole story first, read the full announcement article.

In the meantime, help spread the word about this historic mission to get Frank White to SPACE!
