Hello, everyone!

We've got exciting news to share today! We hit a new stretch goal, we've got new ways to support the educator pool, and a new article on the Earhart specimen and women in aviation! We're also now getting into the final week for the MM5 campaign — let's keep it up!

This week we hit the stretch goal for an audiobook edition of the Fifth Edition companion guide! This means a recorded version of the guide text will be included for free with every museum pledge! This is our first ever audiobook edition and we're excited to bring it to you!

Next on the stretch goal list is the Coelacanth Cutting Board — a new add-on of a laser etched cutting board based on a 3D scan of the Coelacanth fossil! This is a project we're super excited about (stream viewers will know about the MM team's love for this fish!) We're almost there so let's keep going to unlock this next goal!

This week, we've got a goal to spread the word about the MM5 Educational Donation program! Is there an important teacher, professor, or librarian in your life? Let them know about the Educator tier!

As an added bonus, you can also help increase the pool of educator museums! We're adding one educator edition for every 30 Large pledges backed, but there's two more ways that you can boost this number. You can add a complete museum to the pool with the Educator Hero add-on or contribute $5 to the Educator Pool here! Every 40 Educator Pool contributions unlocks another museum as well!
