UPDATE - Moon Launch This Weekend (March 7/8)!
Early Tickets To The Moon:
We are now selling tickets to The Moon. This is limited beta access and the people who visit The Moon during this time will help us make sure everything is working properly for when it goes fully public. The Moon beta access will open this weekend.
There are exactly 27 tickets. No more, no less. They cost $25,000. They come in the form of physical in-game books called "Boarding Pass". Each Boarding Pass gets you unlimited access to Starship Damo, which can take you to and from The Moon for $500 a flight. Each Boarding Pass book is numbered and expires once beta access ends. You can, however, keep the numbered Boarding Pass book forever after it expires, if that interests you.
There will be other ways to get to the moon once it is public, and if you'd prefer to wait for a different price scheme, that's up to you.
If you want a ticket, ask Ako or Noket in-game!

Walking On The Moon:
The Moon is a harsh environment. There is a unique challenge to it. There are aliens which early access players will see first, and there is oxygen you need to worry about.
You need to wear an oxygenated Space Helmet, which can be purchased on The Moon. There is also a recommended (yet optional) full space suit which provides important vital information such as your oxygen level, and warns you if there's a leak in your suit. You can bring your own set of armour if you like, but you'll need to buy Space Helmets regardless, so forget bringing a helmet.
There are airlocked areas with pressurization that you can breathe in without any armour on, such as in starships and in Imbrium Public Moonbase. You'll also be able to build moonbases much like villages, and have airlocks so you can breathe without a suit in your own base. The requirements for those will be posted soon.

Lastly, The Moon has different stuff infused into the ground, so mining will be different than you're used to.
Again, if you're interested in being one of the first people on The Moon, grab $25,000, and buy one of the 27 tickets!
See you on The Moon!
PS: Jetpacks.

I don't think so, but you can buy it for $500.

Hey, just to update, the delay is mostly because we're trying to infuse the moon to make it more worthwhile for mining. Plugin issues and moldy cheese have caused some major problems. We also hit some chunk errors and had to deal with that crap.
All in all, we're going to try to liftoff this weekend. I'll give you all an update soon.

Any yeah you can buy space helmets for $500 on the moon. They provide oxygen. You need oxygen.

Moon Launch This Weekend (March 7/8)!
We had major problems infusing the moon's interior with lovely things to mine.
So instead, we're going to offer local infusion as a bonus for getting a Moonbase (like a village) protected, and launch this weekend. :)
