The proposal featured a handwritten note captured in a photograph with the curvature of the Earth as a backdrop. By utilizing a satellite operated by CrunchLabs, Weiss-Malik positioned his message at an altitude of 354 miles. This maneuver eclipsed the previous record set in 2023, when a proposal was delivered from the International Space Station at an average height of 260 miles.

Weiss-Malik founded Groove Thing shortly after meeting Lodwick, and she has since become a fixture in the company’s public branding and launch events. The couple has invited the public to view their engagement story and leave well-wishes on a dedicated website, spaceproposal.com, which hosts the full collection of messages and imagery from the event.
