DAWN is a spaceship of NASA. It will be launched on June 20, 2007 as scheduled. The destinations are Ceres and Vesta, the largest protoplanets that have remained intact since their formation. They are located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Like several Discovery missions of NASA before, in order to stimulate public enthusiasm for space exploration, if you register through the NASA website, your name will be inscribed on a chip installed on the probe, which will travel with the DAWN spaceship to the asteroid belt. Meanwhile, you will receive a document certifying that your name has traveled with the spaceship. Registration deadline: November 4, 2006.
