An experimental protocol for turning distributed computation into reproducible astronomy datasets. The first production candidate is real TESS exoplanet inference; galaxy and anomaly modes remain research demos.
Design targets for the pre-mainnet protocol. These values are not live chain telemetry.
A subset of the 200M+ star TESS Input Catalog. Miners run inference against these and ~1,000 more per epoch. Coordinates in J2000, magnitudes in TESS band.

Three task types run in parallel. Each draws from a different public survey, applies a different pre-trained model, and emits a different scientific artifact.
Download real TESS 2-minute-cadence light curves from MAST. Run a 244K-parameter AstroNet CNN. Output: PLANET / FALSE_POSITIVE / NO_SIGNAL with confidence score.
Demo only. The current implementation uses synthetic features and is not eligible for production rewards.

Protocol v2 separates immutable supply rules from timelocked task and verifier governance.
Block reward starts at 50 VOID and halves every 210,000 submissions. Floor at 0.1 VOID. Total supply capped at 1,000,000,000 enforced in MiningPool.sol.
Miners commit before revealing input, output, quality, duration and artifact commitments. This reduces copying and simple front-running.
Approved independent verifiers escrow VOID, reproduce work and attest during a six-hour review period. Rewards mint only after quorum.
OpenZeppelin Governor queues task and verifier-policy changes through a seven-day TimelockController. There is no upgrade or emergency-admin key.
Every eligible reveal binds a bounded content-addressed artifact URI. Finalization emits the URI for researchers and indexers.
Versioned releases can be committed on Base and sold in USDC with proceeds settling directly to the DAO treasury.
Production-eligible submissions fail closed unless they use real canonical inputs, the approved model and a retrievable artifact.

Predictable supply curve. The full emission schedule is encoded in MiningPool.sol — no human can change it.
Run the research miner locally today. On-chain rewards begin only after audited v2 deployment and verifier activation.
Run inference against the live data pipeline. No on-chain submission.

Seven immutable, non-upgradeable contracts are under pre-mainnet review. They are not yet deployed or independently audited.
mintMinerReward()Ownable — minter locked after one-time migrationFinalized production outputs expose commitment-bound artifact URIs. Availability still depends on independent pinning and replication.
Finalized commitments are indexed in ResultRegistry; the corresponding artifact URI is emitted by MiningPool. A production indexer is still required.
