Huobi, the virtual asset trading platform, announced the commencement of Phase 1 of the Huobi Mars Program to kick off its ambitious plan for space exploration.

The first phase of the Huobi Mars Program spans from June 2023 to June 2024 and consists of 12 rounds. Each round will include a challenge under which the participating users need to complete the specified tasks and mint the space NFTs.

For each round, one lucky user will be selected to win a monthly reward and the winner will be shortlisted as a candidate for the grand prize of becoming a space explorer. In the second phase, the 12 candidates will be evaluated based on their physical fitness, training, preparation, and community contribution to determine whether or not they are suitable for space travel with Justin Sun. The space flight will be scheduled at a time after July 2024.
