SpaceX’s Dogecoin-funded “Doge-1” lunar mission is nearing launch after receiving key regulatory approvals from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). The license is an important step toward obtaining final Federal Communications Commission (FCC) clearance, which will specifically address X-band and S-band communications for the satellite. #web3

The DOGE-1 satellite project was approved and will be equipped with a miniature screen for displaying advertisements, images and logos. These images will be broadcast to Earth as part of the satellite's unique capabilities. It is worth noting that the entire launch funding of the DOGE-1 satellite is DOGE tokens. #ETF

Dogecoin’s moon mission was originally announced by Elon Musk in 2021 as part of the U.S. space program. However, the launch faced multiple delays, initially scheduled for 2022 and now scheduled for January 2024.

DOGE-1 is one of two Dogecoin-related missions planned in the coming months. In addition to satellite missions, Dogecoin developers also plan a physical DOGE token as part of the Pittsburgh company Astrobotic’s space payload mission.

The impact of the Dogecoin community is not limited to space exploration, but also enhances the profile and creates positive real-world impact in various ways.
