LifeShip has already launched on four missions to space and landed the first ever Pyramid on the Moon onboard Firefly Blue Ghost on March 2, 2025.
We are sending the Luna Pyramid to the Moon on a launch scheduled for late 2025 and then sending a pyramid to an asteroid on an upcoming mission in early 2026. Plus more orbital and lunar missions.
LifeShip has an exciting journey ahead. Join our community space program.

Mission Luna Pyramid
We've delivered the Luna Pyramid to fly onboard the Astrolab FLIP rover. Our Luna Pyramid filled with art creations from our community including custom printed art plates, a mosaic Luna Gallery, the Moon Gallery book, and tiny art objects. The Luna Pyramid contains over 100 plant seeds, the DNA of 500 species, and a digital copy of the human genome. It will be a community-powered our second monument of Earth and human creativity on the Moon.

Mission LifeShip Deep Space
LifeShip is thrilled be on a pioneering deep space mission: sending a pyramid to an asteroid onboard AstroForge’s Vestri mission. It will leave Earth’s orbit and land on an asteroid in orbit around the Sun.
