Send your name to Jupiter on NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft. The mission is scheduled to launch in 2024 on a journey to explore Jupiter's ocean moon – the next frontier in our search for life beyond Earth. Your name will be etched onto a microchip and mounted on the spacecraft along with a poem by the U.S. Poet Laureate, Ada Limón.

Quite worthwhile, assuming there is life that can decipher the chip's message in the Jupiter moon's ocean.

My name's getting out to the solar system; I've been to a lot of places since 2012. Too bad in name only!
Thanks Clinton, hope all is good with you

Interesting article on why you should send your name on the Europa clipper craft.
I know a lot of folks think it's a waste of time.
Interesting new perspective in the article.
I think it's just a bit of fun and have put my name onto several craft in the past.
