You probably won’t get a chance to take a trip to the moon, but NASA is giving you an opportunity to participate in their ‘Send Your Name to Space’ project.
NASA’s Artemis I mission will be the fi rst uncrewed fl ight test of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the Orion Space craft. The flight will pave the way towards landing the first woman and the first person of color on the moon.
NASA invites everyone worldwide to participate in this free virtual project. Visit www.nasa.gov/send-your-name-with-artemis/ and enter your name and create a pin number and you can generate and download your boarding pass. You name will be added to a flash drive that will fly aboard Artemis I.
Due to safety checks NASA has delayed the launch, but they are hoping to launch the spacecraft in May or June. Once the rocket is launched, the SLS rocket will go on an approximately 26-day mission which it will spend six days orbiting the moon before returning back to Earth.
When you send your name around the moon with Artemis I, it will be like you took a trip to the moon without actually leaving home for your mission.
