Shadow Dog Designs will be on Mars!

 

 

On March 4, 2016, Shadow Dog Designs and Seamus will have a seat on the next NASA mission to Mars, along with several other friends.  Well, actually, Shadow Dog Designs and Seamus will be riding on a computer chip along with many other names on the robotic InSight lander.  InSight stands for Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport.  It is a geophyiscal lander that will study Mars' deep interior to try to answer questions about planetary formation and evolution.

 

Here is my boarding pass:

 

 

And Seamus the Shadow Dog has a seat, too:

If you would like to grab a spot on the InSight lander, you need to act quick - the last day to sign up is today, September 8, by 11:59 p.m. EDT.  Here is the link:  http://mars.nasa.gov/participate/send-your-name/insight/
