We are developing the launch pad
A stronger democracy begins with citizens who can understand, deliberate, and act.
Moonshot Press is building a new kind of civic home: a place where journalism does more than follow the news. It helps people make sense of the forces shaping their lives, consider difficult choices together, and find meaningful ways to participate.
The work is taking shape. Our active publication is already underway.

A personal welcome
A brief message from Shimon Waldfogel, MD
Founder and Publisher, Moonshot Press
What we are building
Understand
Clear reporting, Citizen Briefs, and public learning that help citizens see what is happening, why it matters, and what questions deserve attention.
Deliberate
People’s Commissions and public inquiry that bring citizens, evidence, lived experience, and competing arguments into the same civic conversation.
Act
Practical tools, local projects, and opportunities for citizens to turn understanding into constructive participation.
Democracy is not only something we inherit.
It is something we learn, practice, repair, and pass forward.
Moonshot Press is a public experiment in building the civic infrastructure that democratic life now requires—especially in an age shaped by artificial intelligence, profound economic change, and widening uncertainty about our common future.
For now, begin with the journalism.
Democracy. Opportunity. Citizenship.
