To Infinity and Beyond! Okay, Okay, Only to Mars.

Enthralled by the thought of leaving your mark on another planet but afraid you'll never get the chance?  Never fear - a NASA gimmick is here!

Enter your information and with the new Mars rover they're building, NASA will send a microchip with your name on it.

Useful for anything?  Probably not.  If there is extraterrestrial life on Mars, I doubt it would be advanced enough to make sense of the information, nevermind extract it.  But who knows, maybe an advanced alien life form will end up visiting there, find and like your name, and proclaim you the new ruler of their planet.  Whatever.  It's a neat idea anyway and, well, I signed up for it.

You even get an official certificate.  Nerdy I know but somewhere in the galaxy, someone is impressed.  I hope it's a cute guy.
