NASA Slogan Contest

by Tony on September 7th, 2007

Wired Magazine is running a contest to see if we can come up with a better slogan for our beloved space agency.

Apparently there was a campaign to improve NASA’s image that has “NASA explores for answers that power our future.” but there are those who think we the people can do better.

Go here to enter the contest on Wired’s Reddit tool by Sept. 28th.

Here are some of the funnier ones so far:

• Keeping Your Rectum Probe Free Since 1958
• Bigger. Cheaper. Better. Just like your mom…
• NASA: Classifying and Consolidating Your Reality
• We Did the Moon Landings. What Did You Ever Do?
• NASA: We find your lack of faith disturbing.

The one that seems to have the most votes so far is “The Universe is Calling”.

Here, let me try:

• Your rover headquarters
• The dinosaurs didn’t have a space program. Look what happened to them.
• Irritating creationists since 1958
• Discovering more with less
• Because humanity needs to get over itself
• If we don’t do it, who will? China? Oh, right…
• Pushing the boundaries of diaper technology
• You want to go where? For how much?
• The universe isn’t gonna come to us

OK, that’s enough of that, here are some serious ones:

• Your eyes on the universe
• The reward is in the journey
• Humanity’s engine of discovery
• The eyepiece of humanity
• Resolving infinity
• Expanding our boundaries
• Bringing the edge of the universe into focus

I’d love to hear more. If you decide to enter the contest, leave your idea in the comments…
