| MESSAGES FROM EARTH Here's How YOU Can Be a Part of the Story of Space Exploration! The Planetary Society — along with space agencies around the world — sends Messages from Earth throughout our solar system.
Messages from Earth are special hardware mounted to the spacecraft with names, words, and even images included on them. There have been mini-silica DVD's, etched foil, a microchip lithograph, even on a MAPex experimental chip… The Planetary Society is committed to trying to bring the public on board each and every mission launched into space from Earth. Our most recent message arrived on Mars aboard NASA's Phoenix mission on May 25, 2008. The story of space exploration is being written everyday. When the next lander touches down on the surface of Mars or the next spacecraft enters orbit around a giant planet ... you could be there too!
