How a life gets onto the disc.

She tells it by phone.

Twelve calls of about twenty minutes, on any phone, with a patient interviewer that is an AI and says so.

Every chapter is hers to correct.

Her calls become a cloth-bound book in her own words, and she and the family correct every chapter before it is printed or cut.

The pages are cut into nickel.

Her section of Disc I is etched and registered in her name, with a signed certificate of ownership.

Disc I is placed on the Moon.

It flies as a passenger on a commercial lunar landing planned for 2028, once all 3,000 sections are filled.

The sample page is invented. The pictures of nickel are illustrations after photographs of the 2024 disc, and the Moon is a NASA photograph.

10,000

Ten thousand life stories on the Moon by 2030 is the mission of the archive, and Disc I carries the first 3,000.

Records that have left the Earth, and the ones to come.

A disc of messages from 73 countries, left on the Moon by Apollo 11.

Voyager’s gold-plated record of human voices, now in interstellar space.

2024

A nickel library lands near the Moon’s south pole, made by others, in the etching planned for Disc I.

2026

Disc I opens, and its free ring fills toward 10,000 names by December 31.

2028

Disc I flies once all 3,000 stories are done, as a passenger on a commercial lunar landing.

2030

The archive reaches 10,000 life stories, with the volumes after Disc I to follow.

The terms that come with every section.

For thirty days from the order, every dollar comes back, for any reason.

We rewrite her book until the family loves it, and the rewriting is automated and hers to direct, before anything is printed.

Disc I flies when all 3,000 stories are done, on the first commercial lander that can take it, and no refund is tied to the flight date.

If the landing fails, her story flies again on the next landing, at our cost.

If she passes before the flight, her story flies as it stands, and her section passes to whoever she chose.

Renārs, founderfor Archivio Lunare, Rencix SIA · terms version 1, 18 October 2026

Who makes it.

Archivio Lunare is a project of Rencix SIA, a small company in Latvia. Renārs, its founder, started it in 2026 after his grandfather died and nobody had written his story down.

We are new, and we say so. The etching and the disc format have flown before, made by others, and every dollar comes back for thirty days from the order, for any reason.

Questions.

What exactly does she own?
A numbered section of the physical disc, registered in her name, with a signed certificate, though not land on the Moon.
What does the family keep at home?
A cloth-bound copy of her book in her own words, by spring, about four weeks after her last call, and her signed certificate, to keep, give or will. Every recording of her calls stays on the family’s private page.
Can it be my father, or someone who has passed?
Yes. The section is written for whoever you choose, and if they have passed, the family tells the story for them.
Is there a free way to take part?
Yes. Her name, her record, one line and a story of up to a thousand characters go on Disc I’s free ring at no cost. The free entry is here.
Why does it wait for 3,000?
Disc I flies as one piece, so it waits until all 3,000 stories are done, then goes on the first commercial lander that can take it. Her book and her recordings come home long before that, while the disc fills.
Will anyone ever read it?
Perhaps historians, scientists or her great-great-grandchildren will, in a thousand years or a million. That is a possibility, not a promise.

Disc I has 3,000 sections, and one of them can be your mother’s.

Her section is $457.99, paid once, and for thirty days every dollar comes back, for any reason.
