Abstract
AstrOnyx creates space ready toothpaste tablets tested during analog astronaut missions. We want to work with MoonDAO to make AstrOnyx the official oral care solution for MoonDAO missions. In simple terms astronauts need to keep their teeth clean in space without making a mess or wasting water. AstrOnyx solves that with zero waste swallow safe toothpaste tablets. With 45 ETH we will supply MoonDAO crews with AstrOnyx kits test them in spaceflight environments and create educational and promotional content that inspires the public about space innovation and healthy living.
Problem
Astronauts in space face unique hygiene challenges such as limited water toothpaste foam becoming messy in microgravity and traditional toothpaste packaging creating waste. MoonDAO needs an effective tested and sustainable oral care option that works in space and aligns with their mission of enabling decentralized participation in space exploration.
Solution
AstrOnyx toothpaste tablets are • Water conserving with no rinse required and safe to swallow • Zero waste with compostable packaging and vegan formula • Space proven with testing during six analog astronaut missions
Work Plan
1. Supply MoonDAO missions with AstrOnyx kits for crew use during spaceflight 2. Conduct in flight and post mission user testing to refine formula for microgravity 3. Produce joint AstrOnyx x MoonDAO educational videos and livestreams demonstrating use in space 4. Develop NFT backed Astronaut Hygiene Kits for MoonDAO community members blending Web3 engagement with real world products 5. Share mission results publicly to increase MoonDAO visibility and attract future partnerships
Alternative solutions such as other paste or powder brands lack AstrOnyx mission tested performance and space centric design.
Benefits
For MoonDAO this enhances brand image as an innovator in astronaut life support and sustainable technology For AstrOnyx this provides access to live space testing and MoonDAO’s global community Revenue Potential Co branded AstrOnyx kits can be sold to MoonDAO’s 10k plus supporters. If even 5 percent purchase a 30 dollar kit revenue is 15000 dollars per drop. Annualized with 4 drops equals 60000 dollars or more.
Risks
Microgravity reaction Tablets may behave differently in actual space compared to analog missions Mitigation Multiple test phases including parabolic flight before crewed missions
Logistics delays Launch schedules may shift Mitigation Align product delivery with confirmed MoonDAO payload schedules
Adoption resistance Crew members may prefer traditional methods Mitigation Include user choice and pre mission training
Objectives
Objective 1 Make AstrOnyx the official oral care product for MoonDAO missions by Q3 2026
Key Results • Supply AstrOnyx kits for at least 2 MoonDAO missions • Collect 90 percent or higher positive feedback from participating crew • Produce 3 co branded public content pieces with a combined 100k plus views • Generate at least 15000 dollars from MoonDAO community product sales
