NASA News - Send Your Name to Outer Space

Hi,

NASA invites you to submit your name to be included on a DVD that will be rocketed into space as part of NASA's Kepler Mission, scheduled to launch in February 2009.

The Name in Space DVD will be mounted on the exterior of the spacecraft in November 2008. A copy of the DVD with all of the names and messages will be given to the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C.

Those who want to participate in the Name in Space project should submit their name, the state or country they live in and, if they desire, a short statement (500 words or less) answering the question: "Why do you think the Kepler Mission is important?"

A Certificate of Participation will be generated for printing when you register on the Kepler Mission Web site.

The deadline for submissions to the Kepler Mission Web site is Nov. 1, 2008.

To submit your name and learn more about the Kepler Mission, visit http://kepler.nasa.gov/ .

Bye for now,
Nick
