How Your Name Will Fly Aboard NASA’s Europa Clipper
Ғылым және технология
Go behind the scenes in the Microdevices Laboratory at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California to see how your name could be sent to Jupiter’s moon Europa as part of NASA’s “Message in a Bottle” campaign. Names will be stenciled in tiny letters on special microchips that will ride aboard the Europa Clipper spacecraft as it journeys 1.8 billion miles (2.6 billion kilometers) to the icy moon.
See how technicians will use an electron beam to stencil names onto microchips, where each line of text is smaller than 1/1000th the width of a human hair. The microchips will be attached to a metal plate engraved with the original poem “In Praise of Mystery,” written by U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón to celebrate the mission. That plate will then be attached to the exterior of the Europa Clipper spacecraft.
NASA’s Europa Clipper mission aims to determine whether Europa has conditions that could support life. Once spacecraft assembly has been completed at JPL, the orbiter will be shipped to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida in preparation for launch in October 2024.
You can add your name to the “Message in a Bottle” campaign through Dec. 31, 2023. To sign, go to: go.nasa.gov/MessageInABottle
Find more information about Europa here: europa.nasa.gov/
JPL is a division of Caltech in Pasadena.

Always thought James Cameron should do a film on the Storm situated on this ice moon and the depths beneath. Personally, given his track record on films that are deemed event horizons of their time, it'd be stimulating, to say the least.
Signed up... thank you. Something so trivial yet so astounding at the same time
Signed up thank you.I can't put into words how grateful I am for this opportunity and thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who made this possible
I appreciate the initiative and thank you NASA !
Will be a great experience to be on Europa. Thanks.
not only I added my name but I added '' I love you from Earth to Europa''
A magnificent harmonious space for the conduction of lovers and the environment❤
Signed too. Nowadays our technology became very small and efficient - I wish, people could send more than just their names. A collection of all our knowledge, thoughts, dreams. Spreading all over our solar system and not only on Voyager into deep space.

@@DynamicduoFOREVER18 To be honest: I don't know. I don't think, that it is either required or important. Maybe they use it for statistical analysis. Just enter a fake ZIP code, if you don't want to give out your real info.

My 5 yr old has always told me he wants to fly to the stars. This was the perfect thing for him and my daughter (who both of their names are space inspired). When I told him his name is flying in space he was so excited!
This is awesome!! My son will love this! Thanks for doing this!
Nice idea, I will sign up. I sent my name on one of the last Shuttle missions when they did the same thing back then.

There is 1. 1 million names already as of the 2nd Dec. It closes 31st Dec. Think how long it would take to write those before the launch it Oct 2024 and the space it would take as the name are to be etched on a chip 1/1000 inch. So if you think your name is going to be on there think again.

Now it wouldn't be modern NASA if it were actually productive now would it? In fact they have a whole streaming channel they are using tax payer dollars to shovel money at instead of working on manned missions and actual exploration beyond the living room.
