Send your name to the asteroid belt on the Dawn spacecraft. Your name will be recorded onto a microchip that will be placed aboard the spacecraft accompanying it on its mission to the asteroid belt. After entering your name below, you will have the opportunity to print a document that verifies your journey aboard the spacecraft

I'm sure Nasa won't mind we can put some Canadians up there, eh?

Nice one, I always wanted to go to space. And a good idea by NASA, because now I'm going to follow this mission.

Awesome. Just the little piece of immortality I've been searching for. My name is going where no one has gone before.

And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like

Imagine if a creature from another planet find that chip and decide to kill everyone on earth that his name was on it!!!

There isn't a lot of identifying information.. just a name. I think that would be a bureaucratic nightmare trying to track down the right person. Not something that Terminator or Predator could handle on his own.

Just to be sure, I'll put down some of my enemies' names. :twisted:
