Kitakyushu amusement park Space World announced that they will hand over the real-sized space shuttle model (60 meters in height) to anyone who will offer ¥1 billion in their crowdfunding campaign for their closing event. The campaign was set up to coincide with the park’s “Shuttle Firework Illusion” show which will be held on New Year’s Eve and will run from Oct. 22 to Nov. 5. Funding can be done via the Campfire website. Rewards vary depending on how much you fund, such as a ticket to the firework show for ¥12,000 and more. The crowdfunding goal of ¥15 million will cover half of the event budget. Source: Mainichi Shimbun, 9/22/2017
