FAQ

A “DNA Space Crystal” is a process by which we use a proprietary scientific process to extract your DNA from hair samples and infuse your DNA into two crystalline solutions. We launch these solutions to space and while on orbit (traveling over 17,500 mph) in a weightless environment, we grow two totally unique synthetic crystals infused with your DNA. The current formula results in a crystal similar to an Amethyst (color, size, shape, and density can vary depending upon your unique characteristics).

Synthetic crystals grown on earth can look exactly alike, i.e. same size, shape, and colors and are essentially indistinguishable from each other. Space crystals, on the other hand, aren’t hindered by gravity and can grow into totally unique formations. Scientists have documented that there are no two snowflakes alike and the same is true for crystals grown in space. Not only that, but once you add your DNA into the mix, the crystals are totally unique to you and you alone. 

Yes, this actually is real science! You will be part of scientific history by participating in this DNA research program. 

  • Crystals have never been grown to this size before in space. We have flown over 30 demonstration crystal solutions to prove we can actually do this, but we won’t know the size, shape, clarity, or density of your specific crystals until we actually grow them in space. 
  • The process of infusing your DNA into a crystal has never been done before, but our scientists have shown that this proprietary process, combined with storing the crystals in the Lunar Time Capsule has the best chance of preserving your DNA in the harsh environment of space indefinitely.

Like Ancestry.com and 23andme.com, we mail a DNA collection kit to you. The kit has everything you need to collect your DNA and return it safely to us. Unlike other companies, we collect your DNA through hair samples rather than saliva. 

Customer flights to space and the return flights are currently scheduled for the end of the year so it is anticipated that you will receive your crystal by early to mid-next year based on current flight schedules (spaceflight schedules are subject to change based on launch provider). Members will receive consistent updates on launch and return dates as part of the program. This entire process will be documented and customers will receive photos and updates during the entire process.

We are growing synthetic Amethyst crystals about the size of a small marble. However, what makes this program totally unique and exciting is that we are using your specific DNA as part of the process so your crystals will be totally unique to you. No one else on the planet will have a crystal like yours because your DNA will help dictate the size, shape, color, and density based on your unique characteristics.

While not required, we invite you to send data that will tell future space explorers that come across this time capsule who you were. Send content that tells your unique story, complimenting your unique crystal. You can send personal videos, papers/articles you have written, scans of awards, Facebook posts, Tweets, etc. No copyrighted materials will be accepted. 

No. There are a few companies out there offering to send your DNA into space and even to the moon, but they either combine your DNA with thousands of other customers or turn your DNA into powder and put it in a very small disk. In addition, you don’t receive anything as part of those programs other than documentation, patches, or other paraphernalia. We have a proprietary process to infuse your DNA into your unique crystal and house it in a Lunar Time Capsule designed by Texas A&M University which cannot be duplicated. This process gives your DNA the best chance to be preserved indefinitely in space. 

“The Crystal Connection” is the spiritual and quantum level connection that is shared between you and both of your personal crystals. Your crystals are grown simultaneously in space using your DNA, so the crystal you have on earth will forever be connected to the crystal on the moon. Every night when you look up at the moon you will know that the crystal you have here on Earth will forever be connected through space and time to your “Sister” crystal – 238,900 miles away – on the moon. We call that…”The Crystal Connection.” 

The first 260 people that sign up and are paid in full are considered to be “Founding Members” and receive extra benefits for being the first in line: 
  • Gold/Black colored “Founding Member” metal keepsake. The size of a business card, this one-of-a-kind collector’s item is yours to carry around and show that you are part of an elite club of people that will soon have their DNA on the moon. 
  • Founding Members are also placed on the top two decks of the Lunar Time Capsule. 
  • Gray/Black colored “Member” metal keepsake. The size of a business card, this one-of-a-kind collector’s item is yours to carry around and show that you are part of an elite club of people that will soon have their DNA on the moon.

 If you decide to participate in the one of a kind “Immortalize Me” Space Crystals experience you will receive: 

  • Gold colored “Founding Member” or grey colored “Member” metal business card keepsake.
  • Two totally unique DNA Space Crystals.
  • One crystal is yours to keep to and display as you wish.
  • The Sister Crystal is mounted inside the Lunar Time Capsule and sent to the moon with 1GB of your personal data. 
  • Commemorative Plaque showing the exact geolocation of the time capsule containing your crystal on the moon. (see “How do I know where my crystal is on the moon?”) 
  • Opportunities to attend “Members Only” VIP Rocket launch parties. 
  • Discounts on Space Crystal SWAG. 
  • All shipping and handling costs are included. Shipping times may vary based on location. 

It is VERY expensive to send things into space and ultimately to the moon, which makes this an extremely expensive process to execute. Additionally, the number of crystals that we can fly on this first flight is severely limited.  Each flight is strictly regulated by total weight, so this is a first come first serve opportunity. The price to be a part of this one-of-a-kind program is $150,000 (USD) per customer.

  • We do have future flights in the works, so if you don’t make the first flight, we can put you on the waiting list for the next flight opportunity.

Yes, and there will be several opportunities for you to do this at special members only VIP Rocket Launch party events. More info on these events will be disseminated to fully paid members when scheduled. 

Once we have confirmation that your crystal has arrived on the moon, we will send you a commemorative plaque with a life size replica of the lunar time capsule with the exact coordinates of where your crystal located.

What are DNA Space Crystals?

A “DNA Space Crystal” is a process by which we use a proprietary scientific process to extract your DNA from hair samples and infuse your DNA into two crystalline solutions. We launch these solutions to space and while on orbit (traveling over 19,000 mph) in a weightless environment, we grow two totally unique synthetic crystals infused with your DNA. The current formula results in a crystal similar to an Amethyst (color, size, shape, and density can vary depending upon your unique characteristics). 

Why grow these crystals in space?

Synthetic crystals grown here on earth can look exactly alike, i.e. same size, shape, and colors and are essentially indistinguishable from each other. Space crystals, on the other hand, aren’t hindered by gravity and can grow into totally unique formations. Scientists have documented that there are no two snowflakes alike and the same is true for crystals grown in space. Not only that but once you add your DNA into the mix, the crystals are totally unique to you and you alone. 

Is this real science? And why?

Yes this actually is real science and you will be part of scientific history by participating in this DNA research program. 

  • Crystals have never been grown to this size before in space. We have flown over 30 demonstration crystal solutions to prove we can actually do this, but we won’t know the size, shape, clarity, or density of your specific crystals until we actually fly them. 
  • The process of infusing your DNA for preservation into a crystal has never been done before, but our scientists have shown that this proprietary process
  • combined with storing the crystals in the Lunar Time Capsule has the best chance of preserving your DNA in the harsh environment of space indefinitely. 

How do you collect my DNA?

Similarly to Ancestry.com and 23andme.com, we send out a DNA collection kit to you. The kit has everything you need to collect your DNA and return it safely to us. Where we differ from other programs is we collect your DNA through hair samples rather than saliva.

How many crystals do I receive as part of this program?

We take your DNA and infuse it into two crystalline solutions and grow two crystals in space infused with your DNA. Upon returning to earth, the crystals will be processed and scientifically analyzed (as part of the research aspect of the program) and then one of  the crystals will be sent to you and the “Sister” crystal will be loaded into the Lunar Time Capsule and mounted to the lunar lander for its flight to the moon. 

How long does it take for me to get my crystal?

Customer flights to space and the return flights are currently scheduled for the end of 2022 or beginning of 2023, so it is anticipated that you will receive your crystal by early to mid-next year based on current flight schedules (spaceflight schedules are subject to change based on launch provider). Members will receive consistent updates on launch and return dates as part of the program. This entire process will be documented and customers will receive photos and updates throughout. 

What will my crystal look like?

 We are growing synthetic Amethyst crystals about the size of a small marble. However, what makes this program totally unique and exciting is that we are using your specific DNA as part of the process so your crystals will be totally unique to you. No one else on the planet will have a crystal like yours because your DNA will help dictate the size, shape, color, and density based on your unique characteristics. 

When will my “Sister” Crystal arrive on the moon?

Since we are partnering with the organization that is launching to the moon we cannot control when the launch will happen or when it will actually arrive, but we have space allotted on the flight, which is currently scheduled for mid to late 2023. 

As part of the program you mention I get to send 1GB of my personal data to the moon along with the “Sister” crystal - what data can I send?

While not required, we invite you to send data that will tell future space explorers that come across this time capsule who you were. Send content that tells your unique story, complimenting your unique crystal. You can send personal videos, papers/articles you have written, scans of awards, Facebook posts, Tweets, etc. No copyrighted materials will be accepted. 

Is there anyone else out there doing this?

No. There are a few companies out there offering to send your DNA into space and even to the moon, but they either combine you with thousands of other customers or turn your DNA into powder and put it in a very small disk. In addition, you don’t receive anything as part of those programs other than documentation, patches, or other paraphernalia. We have a proprietary process to infuse your DNA into the crystal and house it in a Lunar Time Capsule designed by Texas A&M University which cannot be duplicated.
