Origin Story
A puppy that made history
In 2021, Hayley Arceneaux made history on the Inspiration4 mission — not just as a childhood cancer survivor turned astronaut, but as the first person to bring a zero-gravity plush toy into space.
That plush was named "Jude" — a tribute to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and every child fighting cancer. Hayley knows that fight firsthand.
Three years later, Liv Perroto continued this tradition on Polaris Dawn, carrying her own zero-g plush into the stars. Two survivors. Two missions. One shared mission: hope.
$JUDE honors this legacy — a community-driven token inspired by courage, childhood, and the stars above.
