SpaceX received DOGE payment for DOGE-1 Mission

As reported by U.Today earlier, Elon Musk’s SpaceX accepted a payment in the memorable meme coin DOGE from Geometric Energy Corporation (GEC).

The company’s Chief Executive Samuel Reid announced that the transaction was made in order to rebook the DOGE-1 Mission after it was initially announced three years ago in 2021. Back then, the project was delayed.

Initially, the plan was to launch the mission on SpaceX Falcon 9 as a payload in 2022, however, the satellite was not ready to launch on time. Now, the GEC boss remains full of optimism that the DOGE-1 Mission will be launched into space after all.
