NASA’s Send Your Name to Mars Campaign is taking reservations for the next mission

NASA has been offering people the chance to send their names for quite some time now. With their recent successful launch, they are now accepting reservations for their next mission.

Once your name is approved, you will be given a boarding pass, and your name will be etched onto a microchip placed aboard the next Mars rover.

Users who submit their email address alongside their name will become a “Frequent Flyer.” NASA will track all the missions you’ve participated in, and accumulate the miles you’ve traveled with each mission you join.
