Polkadot partners with BitBasel's Art for Impact Space Program to send the first UN-themed art collection to the Moon, creating an eternal cultural legacy in space.
This unprecedented space art initiative will preserve humanity's creative vision through the Galactic Library Preserve Humanity (GLPH) lunar archive. Selected artworks will travel to the Moon's surface aboard Astrobotic's Griffin-1 lander as part of NASA's CLPS program, protected by revolutionary Nanofiche technology capable of enduring space's harsh environment for millennia.
As a pioneer in sustainable blockchain technology, Polkadot brings Web3 innovation to this cosmic art project. Artists worldwide are called to submit 2D works interpreting the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals, with accepted formats including digital art, photography, and scanned traditional pieces.
A prestigious selection committee featuring experts from BitBasel, Polkadot, GLPH, and the University of Florida Blockchain Lab will choose works demonstrating both artistic excellence and meaningful SDG representation. Successful artists will achieve the extraordinary distinction of having their creations displayed on another celestial body.
The lunar art payload is scheduled for launch in late 2025 via SpaceX, marking a revolutionary moment in both art history and space exploration.
