Whatever field you\u2019re in, if you\u2019re dreaming up something that seems impossible, we\u2019re the community for you.\n\nWe also fund frontier science like unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) lab work, for which we have already raised thousands of dollars from NFT art auctions. As a movement for highly participatory, global science, DeSci inspires our approach to this project\u2014targeting the greatest mystery of our time, but one that is woefully overlooked, underfunded, and stigmatized.\n\nThere are some encouraging trends, with new and serious UAP efforts already underway in Congress, the defense and intelligence establishments, NASA, Harvard, Stanford and elsewhere, and elevated media coverage. But this is an all hands effort for all people, for which the philosophy and technology of DeSci is well-suited. \n\nWe envision an entire ecosystem of research and technology development surrounding UAP materials research. Our efforts will benefit the public by adding to the stock of high-quality data, and generate commercial IP that can someday be spun out into new companies. We intend to mint our first funded lab report as a free, open-edition IP-NFT.\n\nFuture Folklore is excited to return to Gitcoin after participating in the first ever DeSci grants round.", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "future_folklore"}
