Additional Information

The chances that you'll be riding on NASA's next trip to the moon are pretty slim, but there is a way for your legacy to blast into space.

NASA is inviting everyone to send their name to the moon on board the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.

Right now you can log onto a special NASA Web site that is collecting names, which will be put on a microchip that will be integrated into the LRO.

The LRO mission is the first step in NASA's plans to return humans to the moon by 2020.

The deadline to add your name to the microchip is June 27.
