A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall NASA: Send your name to Mars 2011

My friend sent me this link. Apparently, NASA has a plan to launch a shuttle to Mars sometime in 2011. They're having people submit their names, country, and postal code to be put into a microchip. You even get a neat little certificate you can print out in the end :) Thought you guys might find it interesting. You can even check the distribution of participants (California has the most...is NASA headquarters in CA?)

kenny, nasa's headquarters is in houston texas. although, they have major offices/sites all over the country including edwards air force base in california and places in florida.

My name has already been sent to Mars on the first Martian Rovers......but it's going again in 2011!

I just got a certificate of my name being sent!!

Thanks Kenny, Just amazed my son by sending his name.

Will they provide food, clothing, and habitation, when we get there?

Send in your name, too, Glenda. I sent in my family and AMAZED my 7-year-old Grandson by sending his name. It's free, and they have room for EVERY name on Earth with TONS of room for more.
