Pornhub has launched an Indiegogo campaign to make a sex tape on the final frontier: space.

The campaign, titled Sexploration, aims to raise $3.4 million to make a porno in space featuring Eva Lovia and Johnny Sins as astronauts. Those who donate to the campaign will be entitled to a range of prizes, all of which have space-inspired names. Awards include early access to the resulting film, an opportunity to interview Eva and Johnny, and a gift of porn props from the film. The top prize, called the Uranus prize, will award the person who donates $150,000 or more one of the two space suits worn in the film complete with underwear (we hope they wash that).

“This will be a grand experiment in learning how intercourse works after penetrating the Earth’s atmosphere,” said Corey Price, vice president of Pornhub.

Pornhub says the money will go towards funding shuttle seating for the crews and performers, as well as space-appropriate video equipment. The company will front the costs for all other aspects of the film, like actors, promotion, and pre/post production.

The campaign will go on for another 30 days, and if the project gets funded Pornhub expects to launch its team into space in 2016.
