We're going to Moon



Hurra! End of the year 2008 we fly to the moon with the LRO!
OK, not personally. But our names do fly with. At the end of the year 2008 NASA sends the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) to the moon. The list of names will be stored on a microchip and taken on board of LRO. Till the 27 of June each interested person can insert its name into this list which flies with LRO to the moon.

A thought crossed my mind.
Wouldn't it be great, if our works of art could begin their journey already in digital form to the moon? And so I addressed my inquiry to the LRO project manager Mr. Keith Opperhauser at NASA.
Unfortunately it's not possible for the moment and here is the answer of Mr. Opperhauser:

Peter,
My apologies, but were are unable to include anything but names at this time. Regards, Keith Opperhauser

Well, up to our exhibition on the moon there are still 12 years and so we have plenty of time.
Perhaps we can use an opportunity with the next mission and send a part of our works of art already in digital form to the moon.

We take part
