If you’ve never participated in Send Your Name before, scroll down to the New Flyer section. You can enter your name & country and submit it to our site to see your boarding pass. If you’d like to join our “Frequent Flyer Program” and receive a notification when the next mission is coming, you can add your email to the form.
If you sent your name on the Orion spacecraft’s first test flight in 2014, and have a Frequent Flyer account (which means you included your email at the time), scroll down to the Frequent Flyer section. Enter your name (exactly as you entered it in 2014) and email (the same one you used in 2014) and you’ll be taken to your Frequent Flyers page which will allow you to receive your InSight boarding pass, and track your miles from all the missions you’ve joined.
All submitted names are reviewed, approved and then etched onto a microchip which is sent aboard the spacecraft and journeys to Mars. Here is a picture of the chip that flew on the first test flight of the Orion spacecraft with 1.3 million names inscribed.
