Send Your Name to Mars: NASA Launches Name Flying Initiative



This is a virtual boarding pass for a flight to Mars, cooked up by the geniuses at NASA. Looks pretty awesome doesn't it? Perhaps this is how boarding passes for Mars flights will really look one day, hopefully within our lifetime.

Sadly, I won't be going to Mars just yet - but at least my name will be! You can send your own name to Mars on Orion's flight test by following this link: http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/participate/send-your-name/orion-first-flight/#name-form Make sure you register soon, though, because the closing date is October 31st, 2014.
