SUMMARY
NASA's Face in Space program allows individuals to send their photos into outer space on upcoming space shuttle missions. Participants submit their images digitally, likely stored on a flash drive, which will accompany the shuttle. The initiative aims to engage the public with space exploration, although opinions on its potential impact on reviving interest in the space program vary. More details can be found at the official website: faceinspace.nasa.gov.
