Not sure how many of you have registered before to sending your name to space with NASA missions... They are now accepting registrations for sending your name on a Mars mission planned for 2020. You can download your "boarding pass", accumulate miles and download current (and previous) mission patches from here.

 

These are mine:

I have the same two. Shame I didn't know about it in time for the Orion EFT-1 mission. Means I'm only sitting on 614,810,630 frequent flyer miles :-D

Wondering what form my name will take when it arrives on Mars... a bronze plaque, perhaps? A street or city name? Lights big enough to be seen from Earth? Or some bits in Flash memory that will be overwritten after arrival?

A 50m statue in my likeness will be sufficient. Riding a velociraptor, since I imagine they will be all the rage in the 2500s.
