"Wow, the plan is very unique, I hope it will be."
Isle of Man and Lonestar, a Florida-based computing startup that signed an agreement with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will send a payload* containing data cubes to the moon in February 2024.

The data stored in the cube will be verified back on earth using blockchain technology which is becoming increasingly popular.
If everything goes as planned, blockchain technology will also change when humans land on the moon, then NASA will launch a second mission called Artemis 3 in 2025.
So here it can be seen that Lonestar and the Isle of Man are about to work together to pilot a long-term lunar storage system that will rely on solar energy and the provision of additional infrastructure will not be required at all.
The test involves the creation of a digital stamp or better known as "digital franking" which is stored in a data cube on the moon where once installed, the data will be verified through the blockchain to ensure it is complete and not tampered with.
Following blockchain has some interesting properties, astronauts who land on the moon in the future can use data cubes to check in on the moon while the astronauts' interactions can be verified through the blockchain.
It's true that blockchain may not be able to disprove the theory of the 20th century moon landing notion, but it shouldn't dispute the next human touching the moon's surface.
