NASA has opened up the chance for members of the general public to have their names sent to the moon.
The announcement was made on the official X (formerly Twitter) handle of NASA.
The post reads: "Send your name to the Moon! Our VIPER rover will explore the lunar South Pole, studying shadowy craters and searching for frozen water—and you can sign up to add your name before it lifts off."
