Cannot afford space travel? Fly your name to Mars


Affordable space travel may be far off, but Earth-dwellers can send their names to Mars for free under a program by the Planetary Society, a space advocacy program.

The Planetary Society is sending a DVD carrying Earthlings' names, space-inspired literature and messages from prominent space exploration advocates to Mars on board NASA's Phoenix Mission, a project headed by the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory.

To submit your name and message, go to the The Planetary Society’s website. But hurry, the last day is Feb 1, 2007.
