NASA is sending names of 2.4 million people to Mars aboard the InSight Lander which will be launched in May 2018. The names include William Shatner, known for portraying Captain Kirk in Star Trek series. NASA had earlier invited participants to register for a downloadable Mars "boarding pass" and send in their names, which were etched on a silicon chip.
