Promising An Ad Renaissance, Elon Musk To Sell Advertising In Space!
For Elon Musk, it seems, that sky is indeed the limit as he decides to sell advertising space…in space!
Using the concept of “Space Art”, both Elon Musk’s SpaceX and Geometric Energy Corporation ( GEC) will take advertising to space.
As part of GEC’s Rideshare Program, a CubeSat showing personalized advertising will be launched from a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. Companies like GEC have been able to construct their own CubeSats to transport tiny billboards to space because of the fast advancement of satellite technology.
The expense of advertising will be decided by the current market worth of cryptocurrency tokens, which may be turned into rights to control pixels on the CubeSat. Again, the more the token buy, the larger or enduring the advertisement.
Given that a billboard ad in a big city may cost up to $923,000 USD to put up for a month, space ads live-streamed to Earth may be more yearned for.
Even though GEC is currently working on a quantum communication method that would allow seamless information transfer over huge distances, the first CubeSat art space billboard is still planned to fly in 2022.
With augmented reality becoming the new normal, such technologically advanced setups promise an advertising renaissance and will change how we perceive the same.
