Million dollar milestones have been losing their significance with Star Citizen passing another one every few weeks, but for the $42 million mark at least, previous backers will be able to bring a towel.

There's a few less exciting non-cosmetic features promised as well, which you can read in Chris Robert's detailed blog post, but we know that you all really just want to know more about the towel (thanks Polygon):

Everyone who backs before we hit $42 million will also receive a towel for their hangar. Don’t explore the galaxy without it!

The team has put together some preliminary art for the towel, included in this post. Use your Observist towels with pride, they’re only available to backers who supported us before this level! (Just like Arena Commander itself, we’ve tried to come up with fiction to go with the towel: it’s the incentive reward your character got for subscribing to The Observist in the first place.)

The developer's sights are now set on the $44 million stretch goal, for which fans have voted for an additional hangar room.

The first spaceship combat live gameplay of Star Citizen was recently demonstrated at PAX East 2014, and some small protoyping portions of the game have already been made available to its crowdfunding backers, but a more complete release date has not yet been set.
