In partnership with Paramount+ satellite company Planet and technology company OTOY, the Roddenberry Foundation is launching a new initiative, Boldly Go.

The official launch will be on Star Trek Day this Wednesday, 8 September, marking 55 years since the series began on American television.

Star Trek fans and citizens around the world are being asked to submit photos and videos describing their hopes for the next 100 years. The goal is to pay homage to Star Trek’s message that we can work together to build a better future. The Foundation will work with OTOY and renowned digital artists to combine submissions into a piece of artwork that will be made available to the public and auctioned to generate funds for nonprofits—ensuring the public’s Star Trek-inspired hopes for the future translate into real-world impact.

The Foundation is also partnering with  satellite company Planet to etch the campaign’s artwork onto a network of their satellites, to be launched into space in 2022—memorializing our collective hope for humanity’s future in a first-of-its-kind space-based art installation.
