Web3 Domains Literally Reach for the Moon with .lunar Extension

Reaching for the Stars: .lunar Domains Launch

Unstoppable Domains, a leading platform for Web3 domains, and Copernic Space, a Web3-native marketplace for real-world space assets, have announced the launch of .lunar. This groundbreaking onchain top-level domain (TLD) is designed for innovators across space, crypto, and DePIN technologies.

In a historic move, a select group of .lunar domain badges will be sent as graphics on a commercial moon mission, currently scheduled for 2026. Copernic Space will authenticate and tokenize these domain badges as Real World Space Assets, providing verifiable ownership of the domains on the lunar surface.

The Expanding Space Economy

This launch occurs amidst the rapid expansion of the space economy. Today, over 10,000 active space assets are in orbit, and that number is expected to triple within five years. The market is currently valued at over $600 billion and projected to exceed $1.8 trillion in the next decade.

Statements from the Key Players

Sandy Carter, Chief Business Officer at Unstoppable Domains, stated, ".lunar is about more than naming. It’s about identity in the next frontier. As humanity builds in space, blockchain, and AI, our digital identities should be as bold and forward-looking as the innovations they represent."

Lady Rocket, Co-Founder of Copernic Space, added, "With .lunar, we’re giving everyone a chance to claim a name that’s not just on the internet. It’s part of the space economy. Sending domains into space and turning them into Real-World Space Assets is a declaration that ownership in space belongs to all of us.”

.lunar: A Domain for Innovation

.lunar domains are designed for fast-moving projects across code, culture, and space. Like other Unstoppable Domains TLDs, .lunar offers built-in onchain utility, providing value both within and outside the space industry.

Making Space History

Access to the initial batch of .lunar domains heading to the Moon will be revealed at launch. These domains will become part of Copernic Space’s ecosystem, joining partnerships with companies like Axiom Space, Orbits Edge, CUDO Compute, and Exos Aerospace.

According to Carter, this is the "first naming layer you can actually see from space," symbolizing the future of the internet and humanity.

Unstoppable Domains and Copernic Space plan to introduce additional space-related domain extensions linked to real space assets and missions.
