For STORIES Mission 03, a special emphasis will be given to submissions from Canadians in honor of this launch from Canada’s first commercial spaceport. STORIES of Space welcomes individual contributions from people of all ages, submissions from school and community groups, and written works from all of Canada’s provinces and Indigenous nations. The deadline to submit a story for this high-G suborbital launch mission is May 31, 2024.

STORIES of Space provides a unique opportunity for people to launch their story about space, INTO space. Each mission asks the question, “How can a story change the way we explore space?”

Currently, more than 300 human written stories are orbiting on the International Space Station through the first STORIES of Space mission, (Mission 01), launched on August 1, 2023, on an Antares rocket from NASA Wallops Flight Facility on a Northrop Grumman Cygnus spacecraft. Those first stories will remain in orbit through March 2024, providing humans back on Earth the knowledge that part of themselves – their stories – are a part of space exploration.
