This e-mail came out of the blue!
Dear Stephen Macdonald,
Thank you for participating in The Planetary Society's Messages from Earth project!
Your name is now one step closer to Mars. The silica glass mini-DVD with a quarter million names on it -- including yours -- has been installed on the Phoenix spacecraft, and is ready to go to Mars!
The spacecraft has just successfully been flown to Cape Canaveral, and now will begin final testing and preparation for launch. Phoenix will arrive and land in the northern near-polar regions in late May or early June 2008 (exact date dependent upon launch date). We’ll keep you updated on the mission as it progresses towards launch, and of course, update you on its launch and landing.
Sincerely,
Bruce BettsDirector of Project
The Planetary Society
WoW!! I'm going to Mars!
Last year during the window where you could add your name to the spaceship database so I added some names to travel to Mars!
Out of this world!!
