Nicholas Kang Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) This doesn`t actually sounds like a news but I still post it here because I get to know it from a newspaper. I think most of the members might have known this project. You can sign up for a boarding pass to get your name on a trip on the Orion testing module on-board the Delta IV Heavy rocket. After the landing scheduled at The pacific ocean transfer near California, your journey haven`t ended. Your name will continue to fly on subsequent Orion spacecraft in the future which is going to on-board the Space Launch System(SLS) by NASA. You collect points along the journey. For the Orion Flight Test, the point is 60000 miles. The website is go.usa.gov/vcpz The closing date is Oct. 31, 2014 The rocket is scheduled to launch by Dec 4-6(which is the launch window) 2014 from Cape Canaveral Launch Pad, Florida To prevent this topic to be graded as off-topic, here is a related news. http://www.universetoday.com/115123/nasa-invites-public-to-send-your-name-to-mars-starting-on-orions-first-flight/ I have found the official press release by NASA.
