Names in Space

Okay... so randomly, I like to search for myself on Google and see what comes up and where it comes up. Today, I was searching and found something very interesting....

Apparently, there was a modual sent into space in 1999 to intercept a comet (I remember this) and onboard, it had a few computer chips with 1,000,000 names on it. Well....my name happened to be on that chip. I have no idea how, but it was and now, until the sun explodes, my name will be digitally inprinted on a silicon chip, floating in space. Pretty neat.

I can only assume that my father was the mastermind behind this as both my brother and mother are also listed. Go Dad.
