Spaceflight involves the use of spacecraft to travel in outer space, both with and without humans onboard. It is used for space exploration and commercial activities like space tourism and satellite telecommunications. While currently only astronauts travel to space, private space travel ventures expect space tourism to grow significantly in the next few years and decades as costs decrease. Predictions estimate hundreds of thousands or millions of people may travel to space once prices reach an affordable level. New spacecraft are being designed for long-duration missions that could take astronauts to an asteroid by 2025 and orbit Mars in the 2030s. This growth of the space tourism industry will require new roles like space-trained pilots, spaceport operators, and space tour guides.

The spaceman's ship is attacked by aliens. He flees through a wormhole and crash lands on a planet covered in metal. He finds a space dock inhabited by humans but under attack by evolved aliens. The spaceman uses a defense turret to destroy an alien ship. He later salvages an alien battle pod and upgrades it to scout and attack the aliens, but they are too numerous. To save the future, the spaceman travels back through the wormhole and destroys the aliens' home planet, but causes a paradox that threatens to destroy the past and future.

3. The Space Dudes were a massive collection of
astronauts and space travelers from all countries of
Earth.They were going to form the first space
mission to take man-kind outside of the milky way.
This had been a huge project, and had taken Earth’s
most brilliant minds decades to plan and execute how
to build such an impressive space craft.The ship had
been built in the massive ship yards orbiting Earth
and had cost 2 Trillion dollars total to complete.
However, the finished product was worth it, the
scientists agreed.The ship was massive, and capable
of ferrying thousands across the stars, and even
capable of creating its own wormhole, which it could
use to travel between universes.This ship would be
able to carry humans farther than anything ever
created before in the past.
4.
5. To fill this ship, every country selected many of their
own to fill the ranks, and to make the first expedition
beyond the Milky Way.These pioneers were called the
“Space Dudes,” and they were seen as heroes for the
future of humanity.They spent weeks training for the
grand voyage, learning everything they would have to
for intergalactic flight.
The goal of the trip was to go to another galaxy and
establish a forward operating base for humanity.Then
the ship would return to Earth and pick up the next
load of astronauts and bring them to the base. It all
seemed simple enough.

7. COMPANIONS
After sellout we will begin working on our second
generative collection, which will be airdropped to all
Space Dudes holders
MONTHLY AIRDROPS
Every Month Space Dudes Holders will be airdropped
curated collaborations with artists within the NFT
community. Each month a 1/1 piece from the
collaboration will also be auctioned off with a portion
going to a charity of the communities choosing

10. On the night before the voyage, the Space
Dudes had all been shuttled aboard the
massive craft and they were doing some last
minute preparations for the next morning’s
journey.They were also celebrating the
completion of their training. All were excited
to be heroes for humanity and to be the ones
to usher in the future of their race. As they
were celebrating on the ship though,
something went wrong.The machinery that
helped to manage and create the wormholes
that the ship would use to travel between
galaxies had malfunctioned while someone
was performing a last-minute check on it.
11.
12. There was an explosion heard from the back of the ship and the
lights went out, sending the Space Dudes into a confused frenzy. A
second later there was a pulse of blue energy that surged through
the craft, knocking the Space Dudes out.
When the Space Dudes came to, they found that each of them
were alone, in an unknown part of space.When the wormhole
generator had exploded, it had teleported all of the Space dudes
to random parts of space, all throughout the universe. Each Space
Dude found that they were alone out in the emptiness of space.
Some were near a planet, some were near a few, but none were
near another Space Dude.They were stranded.
Luckily the Space Dudes had trained a little for situations such as
that, and they had some minor life equipment that could keep a
Space Dude alive for a fairly long time. But their radios were out,
and they were stranded in space.
