Joan Tong. Headquarter

It is an honour for myself & Headquarter to be part of the Media/Crowdfunding team for the once-in-a-lifetime GoSpace project. On 31 May 2019, Mr Lim Seng attempted Singapore's maiden journey into space from Alice Springs, Australia. Though the mission had to be aborted prematurely due to depressurization, the Space team was successful in the attempt and managed to attain over 24,000 ft above sea level after 19 minutes of steady ascent. It has been a long time coming and the journey continues. The Space team is not giving up. And so are we. In the photo is Mr Lim Seng, the head & heart behind this treacherous-yet-remarkable mission. Keep your eyes peeled as he sends the first Singaporean to the edge of space!
