Hi folks, it's been about two years since we last passed the hat to raise the money it takes to keep unmannedspaceflight.com going. We need to raise $5000 this time around. You can donate here. For U.S. taxpayers, the entire amount of your donation is tax-deductible.
Our hosting costs about $1000 per six months. This fundraiser will cover 1.5 years of hosting that the Society has already paid for, plus our December bill, plus about $1000 worth of administration costs accumulated over those last two years. If we can manage to raise $6000 then we'll be able to go for a whole year before we run another fundraiser  But we're setting the goal of $5000 because that's all we need for now.Thanks in advance for your support. To monitor how the fundraiser is going, there is a little thermometer gizmo on the donation form. Let's see if we can raise the money within a week! -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Despite being a lurker and reader of other people's comments much more than actually posting anything, I did give $50 USD for this site to continue.

Emily, as Charter TPS Member I will fulfill my duty (with pleasure) by making a donation... tonight from home, because on my office computer screen the TPS donation page is just gray with no more on it... I'm not sure I have the latest IE version in my office. Cheers !

Thanks everyone for your generous contributions so far! We're already above $2000 after less than 24 hours!
Regarding the IE8 from work problems: I'm letting the people who do forms know about this -- we'll see if we can figure out a solution. Climber -- fortunately, our website is not hosted from our office, so it (and my ability to work) are entirely unaffected by the leaky pipe. It's just the people who actually need to use paper -- the membership department and finance officer and so on -- who can't do much this week. -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

We're wondering if the problem is related to the thermometer, which we haven't used on our forms before. For those of you having trouble accessing it from work, can you see our regular donation form here?

FF on XP works, IE doesn't for me. IE appears to think the page's HTML is seriously terrible, with nothing in the body. And looking at the HTML, there are several linebreaks in the <body> tag. I saved the HTML from FF, and it's the same there. FF is just tolerating it better. For what it's worth, it appears that FF is highlighting the <body> stuff in red, probably indicating it realizes it's mangled, but is proceeding rather than abending.

We're looking at it and our IT guy says there's a jquery error that's breaking it on IE8. He's trying to fix it.

Should I have gotten an email confirmation? The thermometer went up by the right amount, but I haven't seen a confirming email yet.
Update: got it! It was from Bill Nye himself, so no wonder it was delayed. He's gotta be awfully busy. |

USD 100_ donated from home tonight.
Unfortunately the TPS "Donation" webpage shown on my computer at my office shows just a grey page with a fine blue grid... and nowhere to click on... (please, see : http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...t&p=192078) Thanks Emily for your involvement in the UMSForum

That problem should now be resolved. Can anybody who was formerly having trouble confirm? It should've been confined to IE8. You may need to refresh a few times or shift-F5 to get rid of cached assets.

Now it works from my office as well ! ==> By the way, could you, please, be so kind to have the TPS logo at the bottom of the UMSForum webpages be "clickable". This would (i) be of a good marketing for visitors and (ii) save time when going to the TPS website... Thanks a lot in advance and congratulations for your work both at the UMSF and at TPS

And here's a bump: We're at 85%, people, not too far to go. Let's get it done!
Put it to you this way: If we can top the goal by midnight GMT, I'll kick in another $50 just to seal the deal. (If you all knew how cheap I am in real life, you would be truly flabbergasted by this challenge!!! )Heck, I'll go one better: If we can reach $6000 by 0001 GMT 2 Oct I'll change my icon to a ballerina in a tutu for a full week! So, if you can, please donate, if for no other reason than to make a heartless robot cry. I'll both love and hate you for it... -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

I get calls all the time from Firemen, Policemen, Children's hospitals...all good charities and I've had to turn them all down. The last 3-4 years have been very tough on me, government job with no raise in pay but everything else going up up up. Still, I love this forum, so I have added my meager contribution. Long live UMSF!

"Meager" or "large" is only meaningful in proportion to one's means -- even a dollar or two gets us closer to the goal, but more importantly it helps to show how many people think UMSF is a valuable resource. I don't mind seeing 10, 5, even 1-dollar donations come in -- quite the reverse.
Ordinarily I don't approve of animated gif avatars, but nprev's challenge proved irresistible. If we make the $6000 goal by 0001 GMT on October 2, nprev's avatar will have to be this for the week:  (Pretty proud of my handiwork there...) -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Woo! We made the $5000! Thanks everyone! Any extra at this point will go to pay our June bill (another $1000) and support there not being an annoying fundraising drive until a year from now. And if we raise that in 24 hours, bring on the dancing robot.

First off, VERY well done, you guys!!! And even though it's currently almost 0300 GMT 1 Oct, fair is fair; I'm kicking in another $50.
(Sigh)...Joined the Air Force. Went to college. And here I am praying that my avatar on the most respected space exploration forum on the entire Internet will be a dancing robot in a tutu...okay, so yeah, that was TOTALLY the objective all along!!!

It looks like we're safe from the pink dancing robot -- we're at $5225 now. I'm actually kinda relieved
Thanks again to everyone who contributed. We met our goal, and with that extra $225 and whatever straggles in over the next few months, the Society will be able to cover most of the June hosting bill; so we won't be hassling you for money again for a year. -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Oh, YOU'RE relieved???...
Well, I'll man up if it does come to pass. But, yes, thanks to you all for supporting UMSF!

UMSF used to have a site where we could buy mugs, tshirts, etc.
Does anyone ( Nprev, Emily, Doug) know if it is still around ? |

I used to maintain one at CafePress - but the quality of the products wasn't something I was especially happy with so I culled it. The effort in setting it up really didn't justify the tiny tiny revenue it generated.

I have just opened a new Planetary Society store at Redbubble and got my first shipment today. Quality is great, though prices are high. They only do apparel, stickers, and posters. I'd be happy to throw some UMSF related stuff up there. I'll slowly be moving other content from our Cafepress store to the Redbubble store, and I have a few new designs to add.
Nearly all our T-shirts are designed by Astro0 anyway If anybody knows of a good alternative to Cafepress for tchotchkes (mugs, hats, keychains, what have you), I'd love to hear recommendations. Cafepress quality has gone down the toilet, and the sales interface is absolutely awful; I'm done with using them. -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.
