Pornhub Launches Indiegogo Campaign to Crowdfund First Sex Tape in Space

NEW YORK, June 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Pornhub, the premier online destination for adult entertainment, today announced it has officially launched an Indiegogo campaign to crowdfund the first ever sex tape in space. The "Sexploration" campaign, which will run through the next 30 days, is looking to raise $3.4M to fund the maiden voyage set for takeoff in late 2016.

By taking to Indiegogo, Pornhub is giving its loyal fans the opportunity to be a part of this historic undertaking by providing a way for them to have their own say in how the entire film is put together via campaign contributions.  Each donation will in turn be rewarded on a tiered prize level basis depending on the amount of each offering, with the higher tiers reflecting a greater amount of contributor control over production. The campaign's proceeds will go directly towards securing key components, such as the cost of shuttle seating for the crew and performers, as well as state-of-the-art video equipment to broadcast the iconic moment. Conversely, Pornhub will absorb all of the pre- and post-production costs, as well as expenses for promoting, releasing and celebrating the launch of the film.

"We're looking to pioneer a one-of-a-kind mission to push the boundaries of intergalactic sexploration, defy gravity and make history. We are excited to change the adult industry as we currently know it by venturing into the final sexual frontier," said Corey Price, Vice President, Pornhub. "This will be a grand experiment in learning how intercourse works after penetrating the Earth's atmosphere, a lesson we'd like to broadcast and produce – with great enjoyment – in direct collaboration with those interested in being a part of the global front that will make this a reality."

Pornhub will reward all donations from fans and community members via a tiered prize list aimed at targeting porn enthusiasts who share the company's vision for breaking down sexual barriers. The perks extend from the $1 "Pluto" donation level, which provides you with an "Official Certificate of Endorsement" confirming your support of the Space Program, to the $150,000 "Uranus" level, which scores you one of the two spacesuits worn by the "sextronauts" complete with underwear and a swag bag. There are additional rewards that bridge the gap between the "Pluto" and "Uranus" levels, providing fans and community members the flexibility to spend as they please.
