Next time when you look up at the moon, at the right side there is a crater known as the Mare Crisium. On March 2nd 2025, a payload cleverly designed by LifeShip in the shape of a mini-pyramid containing art collections nano inscribed on nickel plates landed softly into that crater and will stay there permanently as one of the lunar pioneers. The delivery was well executed by the Firefly team on the Blue Ghost Lunar Lander.
Included in the pyramid are two nano-inscribed nickel NanoFiche plates making up the base of the pyramid. One of the NanoFiche is dedicated to the MoonMars Museum group that curated a group of contemporary artists. It’s mission is to elevate human creativity by bringing them to the moon as a permanent time vault. The other NanoFiche is an eclectic collection of references and art curated by Lifeship. This information to celebrate and kickstart humanity will last as long as the nickel plates will last. As a stable element that has no half life, the inscriptions will last for billions of years.
Sealed in the pyramid is also a seed bank of 100 species representing a renewal of Earth’s most essential life sustenance, plants that humans have historically thrived on for thousands of years.
