Have Your Name Sent to Mars

The Planetary Society, once again is having names put onto a special silica glass DVD to send to Mars with the next Mars probe named Phoenix. They say that the glass DVD will last thousands of years and it carries a message to future visitors�of the red planet.

Until January 5th, you can get a special holiday version of the participation certificate. The certificate is printed in color on nice paper and would make a cool gift for scifi and space exploration fans.

The deadline for getting your name or names of loved ones on the DVD is February 1, 2007, so hurry if you want to be part of space history.

This reminds me of the ‘Star Registry’ commercials that come up on radio from time to time. For $54 they’ll name a star after you and send you a pretty certificate. Heck, send me $50 and I’LL name a star after you and send you a trophy !

There are some people I would like to actually send to Mars. Was this an option? If not it should be.
