BROUGHT TO YOU BY…

Throughout history, trivia has always been more than a game.

In ancient Greece, scholars tested each other’s wit in symposiums. In 12th-century Baghdad, thinkers debated questions in bustling libraries. Even in medieval Europe, monarchs used riddles and logic games to assess the sharpness of their advisors.

Today, a new chapter in that centuries-old tradition is being written, one that blends human curiosity with cutting-edge Web3 technology.

We’re proud to announce the launch of the MOT Token on GeckoTerminal, the official utility token of the Masters of Trivia platform. Built on the Solana blockchain and backed by a thriving global community of over 200,000 players, MOT is the first step in transforming trivia into an economic, educational, and social engine for the 21st century.

👉 The Token is now live on DEX (decentralized exchanges): secure them tokens early: See MOT Token »

NASA’s Resilient Return

📅 September 29, 1988 – Space shuttle Discovery launches from Cape Canaveral, ending a nearly three-year suspension of NASA’s shuttle program after the Challenger explosion.

📌 Why This Matters

This wasn’t just another launch. It was a test of NASA’s ability to learn from tragedy and rebuild public trust. Challenger had exposed flaws in engineering and communication that shook faith in space exploration. Discovery’s safe return proved NASA could still lead humanity into space: stronger, safer, and wiser.

NASA’s story is one of both breathtaking achievements and sobering setbacks. From Apollo’s Moon landings to the Mars rovers, from Hubble’s dazzling images to the International Space Station, NASA continues to redefine what’s possible. And every success is built on lessons from its hardest days.
