New Space Tourist Level Added

Update #3 · Jul 15, 2011 · 2 comments

And now, for a limited time only, we’ve added a bonus level:

 * * DENNIS TITO * *

In honor of the first fee-paying space tourist, if you pledge $40,000,000.00 USD you will receive a private screening of Orbit(Film) in outer space. We will arrange to fly you 62 miles above the Earth’s surface, beyond the Karman line and into the thermosphere, where you can become the first human being ever to watch independent experimental short films . . . in zero gravity! The DVD is yours to keep.

Pledge now and we’ll even rename this level after you. Thanks!

      You can now buy all our Orbit(Film) gifts--DVDs, posters, stickers, glow-in-the-dark t-shirts--from our website: www.orbitfilm.com.

      This is without a doubt, THE coolest reward I've seen on Kickstarter. My question is this -- do you still get the Orbit(Film) Decal as well and is travel to the launchsite included? Thanks!
