Mission Description:

In this unique mission, Elephant Juice invites you to imagine a Mars colony where love and unity shape humanity’s future. From all submissions, only one story will be chosen — encoded into DNA and launched aboard a satellite, ensuring your words live forever among the stars. The winner will also receive an exclusive USA Space Tour in 2026, witnessing a real satellite launch and exploring space technology firsthand. This is your chance to leave an everlasting mark in both history and space.

This mission was inspired by humanity’s dream of reaching Mars — not just with technology, but with heart. Just as the Voyager Golden Record carried Earth’s messages into deep space, we believe the future of exploration must carry stories of love and unity. By transforming your words into DNA, we’re making sure that the essence of compassion travels with us, lighting the path for generations to come.

What IS DNA-Encoding?

DNA encoding is an advanced method of information storage, where your message is encoded into a DNA sequence, embedding it within the fundamental building blocks of life.

What types of messages can I send?

You can send love notes, wedding vows, tributes, or personal messages—perfect for couples, memorials, or meaningful milestones.

Where does my DNA message go?

Your encoded message is launched into Earth’s orbit, where it remains as a symbolic and eternal part of humanity’s story.

How is my message encoded in DNA?

Your text is converted into a DNA sequence using advanced bio-encoding technology and preserved in a capsule for space launch.
