Send a man to the moon and return him safely by the end of the decade. The JFK moonshot was a grand goal that captured the imagination of people all over the world. It was a symbol of hope, ambition, and the expansive potential of human achievement. That first moonshot inspired people to dream, to push the boundaries of what was thought possible, and to strive for mission-minded greatness. It was a testament to the power of human creativity, resolve, and collaboration to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges and achieve awe-inspiring results. Humans are designed to pursue grand goals that inspire and uplift us, even as there is the temptation to use this capacity for ill. The Moonshot Institute exists with this purpose in mind. It seeks out, supports, celebrates, spreads the impact, and pursues moonshots that have the potential to create a hopeful and inspiring future for all of us.
