📢 Extension of Temporary Pause on Social Media Rewards

Over the past days, we’ve made solid progress in fixing social media indexing issues, especially on Instagram, where we were able to obtain a new verification from Meta and gain extended access to data, significantly improving reliability.

We’ve decided to extend the temporary pause on social media content indexing for an additional 7 days. This extra time will allow us to further refine our processes, strengthen stability, and ensure we deliver a more robust system with a lower risk of future inconsistencies.

🚫 During this extended pause, there will continue to be no SpaceDust or Badge rewards related to social media activity (posts or views).

⏳ Important: While this extension is planned for 7 days, the timeline may still change if needed, as part of the solution depends on third-party APIs. Any updates will be communicated.

👉 Stay tuned for more updates on the SERA Mission Control app.

👉 Complete the official SERA Feedback Survey

🕒 Deadline extended to February 6th, Friday, 23:59 EST! Rewards will be distributed after the form is closed.

Your input directly helps shape what comes next. 🌍✨

🚨 Community Update | UNITY Mission

As many of you already know, Blue Origin has paused all New Shepard flights for a minimum of two years, as they focus on Blue Moon and New Glenn.

Because of this, SERA’s UNITY launch is currently on hold.

SERA’s mission goes beyond a single flight. While UNITY remains a core milestone, we continue to invest in building SERA as a people-first space agency, creating access, opportunities, and pathways to space. In parallel, we are exploring alternative launch options and near-space initiatives that align with this long-term vision.

🗣️ What’s next
In the coming days, we’ll schedule an AMA with the community to go deeper into the potential impacts, share what we’re evaluating, and answer questions with full transparency.

More soon. 🚀

We were recently notified by Blue Origin of the pause in New Shepard flights for at least two years. We will be in discussions with our partners over the coming days and will provide updates to the community as to how this will affect the Mission as soon as possible.

Thanks for helping us build this together.
Mission continues. 🚀

❓ What about my posts with #SERASpace that are still missing SpaceDust?

➡️ Posts created before the shutdown
Since the beginning of the mission, some posts (and the SpaceDust generated from their views) were not indexed correctly due to system glitches and third-party API limitations.
✅ These posts will be credited retroactively, no later than the end of Phase 1, once the system is stable.

➡️ Posts created during the shutdown
🚫 These will not be indexed or rewarded.

🎯 Still want to earn SpaceDust while the indexer is offline?
We’ll be running daily challenges directly in this Telegram channel, giving everyone a way to keep earning during the pause.

More details coming soon.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. We’ll keep you updated as progress is made 🚀

📢 What Still Works Normally During the Pause

You can continue using SERA Mission Control as usual:

✅ Inviting friends
✅ Completing in-app tasks (except those related to posting)
✅ Maintaining your daily login streak

🚫 Posting Guidance
We recommend not creating social media posts during the shutdown period, as posts created while the indexer is offline will not be credited.

👉 Stay tuned for more updates

📢 Temporary Pause on Social Media Rewards (Starting Now)

As many of you may know, we’ve been dealing with ongoing inconsistencies in social media content rewards across all platforms over the past weeks.

Despite multiple improvements, indexing content through third-party social media systems has continued to produce unreliable results. To properly assess the root causes and fix the biggest issues, we’ve decided to temporarily shut down the social media posts indexer for 7 days, starting now.

🚫 During this period, there will be no SpaceDust or Badge rewards related to social media activity (posts or views).

⏳ Important: While the pause is planned for 7 days, it may be extended if necessary, as resolving these issues depends not only on our systems but also on third-party APIs. We'll let you know in advance about any updates.

👉 Stay tuned for more updates

Quick clarification

Over the last 24 hours, we ran a round of SpaceDust removals for posts that didn’t fully comply with SERA’s posting guidelines that were either reported by the community or spotted using our internal tools.

Most of the participants affected are running great campaigns. In many cases, the issue was simply a partial misunderstanding of the guidelines.

🔎 Important reminder:
Every #SERASpace content must mention SERA or your astronaut campaign in some way, either in the post itself or in the captions, even briefly. Posts without that connection can’t be rewarded.

If you received a notification and want details, you’re more than welcome to contact support:
👉 https://t.me/SeraMissionControlBot

You’ll receive:
• A list of the posts affected
• A clear explanation of why they didn’t meet the guidelines

Responses won’t be instant, but everyone will be answered between today and tomorrow regarding SD removal. Many questions have already been resolved. We just ask for a bit of patience while we work through the queue.

🌆✨ SERA recommends — Builders Keep Rising

CITY Holder is all about ambition: tapping, upgrading, climbing ranks, and expanding your city each season.

They’ve even brought space into the Simulation: including a special object inspired by the real watch - set with diamonds, rubies, and a Bitcoin logo - flown in orbit during Expedition 66 and gifted to Pavel Durov. 🛰⌚️

SERA rewards explorers the same way CITY Holder rewards builders: with progress, challenges, and a community pushing upward together.
