Oh P.S. it’s on the moon.

The Japanese wing of Domino’s pizza said it plans to open a new branch on the moon. A decade after competitor Pizza Hut delivered “pizza” to astronauts in the International Space Station, Domino’s has decided to mark its quarter century in Japan with outlandish publicity stunts. First, they paid someone about $30,000 to deliver pizza for an hour. Then, they announced this, the construction of a dome-shaped Domino’s restaurant on the surface of the moon, at an estimated cost of $21 billion, even with “cost-saving” measures like using the mineral deposits on the moon as construction materials. Spokespeople have not said when they plan to “open” the new branch, nor have they told us whether they plan to maintain the 30-minutes-or-it’s-free guarantee.
