America’s renowned Space Research and Robotics firm Astrobotic is all set up to launch its satellite with a physical Dogecoin into the moon. The news has taken the meme coin segment by storm while gaining attention from the market participants.
Meanwhile, the launch along with Dogecoin will take place on December 23 with DHL Moonbox via ULA’s Vulcan Centaur Rocket as per the official Tweet by Dogecoin’s X account.
The Most Anticipated Dogecoin Launch
Astrobotic was funded by the Dogecoin community back in 2015 and has sent them a bunch of “Physical Dogecoins”. In return, Astrobotic’s mission to the moon in 2021 included Dogecoin to safely land on the lunar surface.
The claim retained the attention of the Space Technology firm and in 2021, they shared a post addressing how in between the integration of MoonBoxes with the Peregrine lunar lander they stumbled across some Dogecoins sent back in 2015 to the firm. Tagging the SpaceX founder Elon Musk, Astrobotics alluded, “Dogecoin actually going to the moon.”
Previously, the vision to send a literal Dogecoin to space was curated by Elon Musk due to his craze of DOGE meme coins. The DOGE-1 mission which is still pending from 2021 is yet to make a move.
SpaceX, the launch provider for Intuitive Machines, has repeatedly postponed the Nova-C mission, proportionally affecting the launch of DOGE-1.
