NASA has been allowing people to participate virtually in select missions for some time by sending the names and titles of willing people into space. Such requests have been accepted in the past for various assignments. currently This is possible with the VIPER vehicle, which is scheduled to fly to the moon later this year. How can this be done?
NASA is currently accepting name and title submissions for the VIPER mission, which is scheduled to launch in November 2024. The lunar module will then be launched into space and will later fly toward the Silver Globe. If we would like to participate in this mission, please do the following.
1. We go to the site www3.nasa.gov/send-your-name-with-viper.
2. On the page, click the button Get your boarding pass.

However, it is worth taking into account that NASA It only accepts characters that appear in the English alphabet. If our name or surname contains one of the distinct letters of the Polish language, it must be changed (for example “Ł” to “L”).
This isn't the first time NASA has let you send your name into space. Previously, this was possible as part of the Artemis 1 mission, which involved sending the Orion capsule to the Moon, but without a crew. Only astronauts will be included in the Artemis II mission, planned for 2024. Until recently, applications for the Europe Clipper were also accepted. This is the probe that will explore Jupiter's icy moon. Scientists doubt the possibility of life existing there.
VIPER (Volatile Probe Polar Exploration Rover) is a mission aimed at sending a small rover to the Moon. The vehicle will land in the area South Pole Silver Ball. The choice of place is not accidental. It is suspected that there are large deposits of ice there. The machine will also explore this region in search of other valuable resources that may be crucial during further exploration of the Moon. And also by people who will stay longer on its surface.
The mission will last at least 100 days, but VIPER may be extended. This depends on the success of the entire project. This is one of the phases of the CLPS (Commercial Lunar Payload Services) program.
Echo Richards embodies a personality that is a delightful contradiction: a humble musicaholic who never brags about her expansive knowledge of both classic and contemporary tunes. Infuriatingly modest, one would never know from a mere conversation how deeply entrenched she is in the world of music. This passion seamlessly translates into her problem-solving skills, with Echo often drawing inspiration from melodies and rhythms. A voracious reader, she dives deep into literature, using stories to influence her own hardcore writing. Her spirited advocacy for alcohol isn’t about mere indulgence, but about celebrating life’s poignant moments.
