NASA Invites Public To Send Their Names To Jupiter’s Moon
The names will be stenciled onto a microchip, along with the poem written by U.S. poet Laureate Ada Limón titled 'In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa'.
The public has been invited to add their names to an original poem dedicated to NASA’s Europa Clipper mission before the spacecraft begins its journey to Jupiter’s moon.
The poem and names will be sent to space as a message in a bottle and will travel billions of miles as the mission investigates whether the ocean thought to lie beneath Europa’s icy crust could support life.
Anyone who would like to participate in the ‘Message in a Bottle’ campaign must enter their name before midnight on December 31st.
The names will be stenciled onto a microchip, along with the poem written by U.S. poet Laureate Ada Limón titled ‘In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa’.
The mission is set to begin in October of next year.
