Primarily an
astrophysical mission, the International Lunar Observatory
(ILO) also will have Secondary Commercial Applications.
It will be a first communications node on the lunar surface,
with the intent of evolving a permanent
link throughout the Earth-Moon System.
The advertising package we present
to you today combines advertising space in LED with
the opportunity to advertise from the Moon directly
once the ILO is in place near the lunar south pole, currently
planned for 2009. The LED, with added value from
instruments aboard the ILO, will attract the attention
of the entire planet. This is your chance to get in on
the ground floor and be one of the first to broadcast your
message from the surface of the Moon.
