Yup. It’s official: I’m going to the moon! The good news: you can too. And you don’t even have to do months of intensive training or pay autonomous amounts of money.

NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) are launching a programme that enables you (yes you!) to send your name to the moon... on a microchip.

"Everyone who sends their name to the moon, like I'm doing, becomes part of the next wave of lunar explorers," said Cathy Peddie, deputy project manager for LRO at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. "The LRO mission is the first step in NASA's plans to return humans to the moon by 2020, and your name can reach there first. How cool is that?"
