NASA on Wednesday (Jan. 15) invited people around the world to submit their names to be etched onto a chip aboard a spacecraft headed to the asteroid Bennu in 2016. The “Messages to Bennu!” microchip will travel with the OSIRIS-REx asteroid sample return mission. The public outreach campaign is the latest “send your name to space”-type project, which dates back more than 15 years involving a dozen planetary probes.
