We support Open Lunar Foundation in advancing research, technology,  peaceful, cooperative future on the Moon towards a Space Renaissance for All. Join us at lunar events we organise next year 2026 at EGU Vienna 4-8 May, COSPAR Firenze 1-9 August and IAC Antalya 4-9 October !

Thanks to the Prelinger Library for all your work keeping information and culture alive and not letting all human knowledge dissolve into a sea of Google search results and LLM training data.

The Prelinger Library is a well-kept secret, but it shouldn’t be. Anyone who values research, critical thinking, and obscure but fascinating sources should, and can, support it. As should anyone who values its special position in San Francisco arcana. 

Helping to create a peaceful, cooperative future on the Moon for all life.

Open Lunar aims to engage in programs and activities to create a peaceful, self-sustaining presence on the Moon, with the goals of preserving Earth's species and knowledge, and the positive evolution of civilization for the benefit of life; including, but not limited to, facilitating and conducting scientific research in the public interest, undertaking projects, collaborating with other entities, organizations and persons engaged in related activities, supporting and facilitating communities, advancing public awareness and understanding of scientific activities, fundraising, making grants in furtherance of the foregoing, and engaging in ancillary or related activity in furtherance of the foregoing. The greater context for the Moon activities is as a first step towards a thriving spacekind.

A community-supported independent library & artist workshop of printed material, fiscally sponsored by Intersection for the Arts.

The Prelinger Library in San Francisco offers thousands of historical maps, zines, documents, books and other materials, all of which are available for artists to reference or reuse. Its collections serve activists, writers, musicians, composers, poets, novelists, journalists, and historians. The Library was established in 2004 and has served over ten thousand reserach visits. Its collections have supported the production of artists talks series, films, novels as well as open-ended explorations by people working across all media types. As a 100% community-supported project, the Library s free to pursue equity and justice, abolition and libration, and to serve the community as a trans- and queer-safe space and infoshop for survival and resistance. The Library puts hospitality first and offers sparkling water or tea to every visitor.

The collections also hold government-produced documents from eras when artists and writers were widely employed in their production, offering art and literature in unexpected places as well as roadmaps toward civil societies. With stacks materials ranging from eighteenth century documents to works produced this week, the room serves as a slip in spacetime within which a couple hundred years of human experience and experiments can be browsed. Library hosts represent a range of subject-matter expertises including public transportation, radio science, zine making, natural history, library science, book arts, moving image history and production, and nonfiction writing.

The Library also exists as an experiment in analog–digital hybridity. Its [stacks can be explored remotely here](https://prelingerlibrary.org/stacks/v2/) (please press the STARS button for maximum experience). Many items that have been digitized can be accessed through browsing Stacks Explorer, or directly at our portal at [Internet Archive,](https://archive.org/details/prelinger_library/v2&tab=collection) our longtime ally in the fight for free access to cultural materials.

The Library is currently open for drop-in visits three days a week in San Francisco. Please [visit our website](https://prelingerlibrary.org/home/) to check the current open hours when planning your visit. Information about artist residencies, more about the history of the Library, and information about the people behind the project can all be found on the website.

The Library's founders also operate a sibling organization in parallel, which is a film archives (Prelinger Archives). Moving image materials from the archives can be accessed through its [portal at Internet Archive here. ](https://archive.org/details/prelinger)

Prelinger Library

We are a social science think tank researching long-term social and technological change, particularly moral circle expansion. We make our research results public and free, so anyone can use them to make more impactful decisions with their advocacy, careers, donations, and other resources.

We are founded on the principle of effective altruism, meaning we strive to help others as much as possible using the best evidence available. We envision a society in which the interests of all sentient beings are fully considered, regardless of their sex, race, species, substrate, location, or any other characteristic apart from their sentience. We see this expansion as an important means to prevent suffering now and in the far future.

Our mission is to conduct interdisciplinary research on moral circle expansion and to share that research with individuals and institutions making the world a better place. Two particularly important areas of expansion are farmed animals and artificial sentience.

Sentience Institute

The Karman Project unites leaders from 70+ nations to promote peaceful, sustainable space tech for humanity’s benefit.

With its enabling technologies and inherently international environment, space is uniquely positioned to aid humanity in responding to and solving some of the most time-critical challenges that we face on Earth. With various satellite and Earth-observation technologies providing us with real-time data of our home planet, we’re empowered to map, understand - and more importantly, mitigate - everything from wildfires to deforestation to illegal fishing, whilst improving things like supply chain efficiency, agricultural practices and disaster management coordination. In parallel, there is significant commercial competition emerging from key players in space, particularly with respect to space exploration and the use of space resources. Ensuring the cooperative and responsible use of space and its technologies at a global scale is essential to our collective future - and herein lies the core mission of The Karman Project. 

The Karman Project is an award-winning non-profit foundation uniting global decision-makers to drive urgent, collaborative action for a sustainable and peaceful future in space. With the space domain becoming increasingly vital to addressing humanity’s most urgent challenges – from climate monitoring and disaster management to global communications and the future of health – we’re working to safeguard space for generations to come.

We run high-impact programs that accelerate the work of exceptional space leaders and organisations. This curated and diverse community includes high-level leaders from more than 70 nations, from astronauts to agency heads, industry executives, researchers, and artists.

Our flagship Fellowship and Pioneer Programs focus on three pillars: Leadership, Dialogue and Action. Fellows build trust, exchange ideas, and drive forward collaborative projects across six key themes: Sustainability, Education, Empowerment, Cooperation, Science, and Inspiration. These programs are supported by global events and partnerships with trusted institutions such as the University of Oxford, Blue Origin’s Club for the Future, and King Charles’ Sustainable Markets Initiative.

The Karman Project has supported the development of over 80 capacity-building projects around the world (aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals), directly improving the lives of more than 5 million people and delivering an estimated 8.8x social return on investment. We’ve awarded 90 scholarships to high-impact leaders, hosted delegations in 10+ countries, and contributed to space policy at the United Nations level.

In an effort to incentivise macro-level changes in space, The Karman Project is currently launching the Space Peace Prize™ with the support of Founding Partners to recognise and elevate extraordinary contributions to international cooperation in space. It aims to stand as the foremost international recognition for projects advancing peace and sustainability in space, and accelerate strategic engagements across the sector during a time marked with global uncertainty.

Educational media that ignites curiosity and long-term thinking through science, culture, and ideas shaping our shared future.

**Our Mission**
Accelerator Media ignites fearless curiosity and bold, forward-looking perspectives on humanity’s future through transformative storytelling. Guided by this perspective, we create compelling media that explores human potential, fosters global connection, and inspires a shared vision for the future we can build together.

**Our Vision**
We imagine a future where curiosity unites us, exploration—grounded in scientific humility—broadens our understanding, and long-term thinking shapes a collective path of discovery, connection, and possibility.

**Why Accelerator Media?**
In today’s media landscape, content is often designed to provoke quick reactions, amplify division, and reward short-term attention. This constant cycle of distraction is eroding our ability to think critically, reflect deeply, and engage with the complex issues shaping our shared future. There is a growing need for media that encourages curiosity, imagination, and long-term thinking—especially in an increasingly divided world.

Accelerator Media exists to meet this need. We produce thoughtful, curiosity-driven content that invites reflection over reaction and exploration over blame. Through our growing portfolio of original podcasts, we bring together leading voices in science, technology, and the humanities from around the world—fostering global dialogue, and inspiring audiences of all ages to think more deeply about our shared future. With support, we can expand our reach, elevate production quality, and make meaningful media more accessible to those seeking substance and connection in an increasingly fragmented world.

**Our Work**
Accelerator Media is building a dynamic portfolio of media initiatives designed to inform, inspire, and empower curious minds to become world-changers. Our core projects include:

●      **[Curiosity Entangled](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7jBCBttxtlQ1HeE2Nf2pVc6)**[ ](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7jBCBttxtlQ1HeE2Nf2pVc6)– *A* unique, non-hosted podcast bringing together visionaries from different disciplines for conversations driven by mutual curiosity. At the heart of our work, *Curiosity Entangled* exemplifies our mission by weaving interdisciplinary insights into a tapestry of discovery. These dialogues reveal unexpected connections, spark fresh ideas, and offer bold answers to humanity’s toughest questions.

●      **[Ignition Sequence](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7gQX6xSAT9wArswbB7Gdjen)** – A video podcast exploring the big ideas shaping science, technology, culture, and the humanities, and how they shape the future.

●      **[Go! For Launch](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7iU0d0Wxa145AioTck3xPf1)** – A podcast guiding young adults toward meaningful STEM careers, blending inspiration with practical insights from global experts and educators.

●      **Future Documentary Projects** – High-quality documentaries and cinematic explorations—around the world and beyond—that take deep dives into pressing questions about humanity’s future, including a planned docuseries evolving from *Curiosity Entangled*.

**Our Impact**
Accelerator Media launched its flagship podcasts, Ignition Sequence and Go! For Launch, to immediate success, garnering over 670,000 YouTube views and 1,500 subscribers in just the first ten weeks, demonstrating significant public interest. This rapid growth, driven entirely by volunteer efforts, validates the demand for content that explores profound questions and career paths in science, technology, and culture, and signals our potential for even greater impact as we expand.

**Primary Platforms**
Currently, Accelerator Media distributes content primarily through YouTube and leading podcast platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts. Our ambitious growth strategy includes future collaborations and distribution through major platforms such as PBS, Netflix, or Amazon Prime, especially for our documentary-focused project, Curiosity Entangled.

**The Need for Support**
At Accelerator Media, **we believe that knowledge drives the future**—shaping the ideas, innovations, and collective vision that will define humanity’s path forward. To produce this transformative content at scale, we need the financial resources to grow our team, enhance production quality, and expand our reach.

To date, all of our work has been accomplished by a dedicated volunteer team operating with minimal funding. This early momentum is a testament to the strength of our mission and the public demand for thoughtful, future-focused media. Now, to meet that demand and ensure long-term impact, we must transition from a volunteer-led effort to a fully supported organization with the capacity to grow.

With a fundraising goal of $1.5M, we aim to:

●      **Staff**: Hire producers, an education manager, and a marketing specialist to sustain and amplify our work.

●      **Operations**: Fund legal, accounting, and administrative essentials for stability and compliance.

●      **Production**: Boost quality for podcasts and documentaries, crafting stories that captivate and educate.

●      **Reach**: Expand globally through partnerships, digital platforms, and new media channels.

●      **Community**: Nurture a network of lifelong learners with evolving content, live events, and interactive forums.

**Why Your Support Matters**
Imagine a world where everyone embraces a century’s-thinking mindset and sees a path to shape tomorrow. A world where curiosity brings us together, exploration cuts through the noise of division and discovery unlocks the full potential of humanity.

That’s the future we’re building—with your support.

We invite you to ignite curiosity and inspire a future shaped by exploration and long-term vision. Your support empowers educational media that sparks curiosity, encourages critical thinking, and explores what’s possible for our shared future.

**Together, let’s spark the curiosity that shapes tomorrow.**
