Artist concept of the mars science laboratory rover on MarsSomeday YOU may one of the people to walk around on Mars. That’s some day in the future -- way in the future. But here’s your chance to have a presence on Mars soon! Send your name to Mars! Your name will be included with others on a microchip attached to the rover, Curiosity. Launch is scheduled for between Nov. 25 and Dec. 18, 2011, with a Martian arrival date of August 2012.

How cool is that?

To send your name to Mars, sign-up at the registration website.

Yeah, definitely I want to go to Mars; also I have a suggestion related to overcoming the gravity of the space shuttle launch. I don't know if your specialists have thought if the launch would take place on the Moon. Gravity wouldn't be as big as the Earth which would lead to lower fuel consumption at launch.

Microchip! no one can see it much less read it with scratches from mars dust. My frends say it cost $5 so NO WAY!!! When I went to http://marsparticipate.jpl.nasa.gov:80/msl/participate/sendyourname/
it said "Thanks to all for submitting your names. You are on your way to Mars!
Your names are being prepared for etching on a microchip that the Curiosity rover will carry on its back (its deck)." and no "click here to have your name on mars for $5!!!" I would relay like this post on this blog.
