I work at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, so I get some access to some pretty cool swag. For instance, they have these "moon medallions" that are made from metal that has been to the Moon and back on an Apollo lunar mission. That's right! The coin actually has metal that has been to our nearest celestial neighbor!
Here's a picture of one of these medallions:
So, to celebrate the recent Chinese Lunar New Year and the start of my new blog here, I am going to have a contest. Anyone that leaves a comment below will have a chance to win an official NASA Moon Medallion! That's right! Just by leaving a simple comment, you can own a piece of our nation's space exploration history!
Now, there are a couple of rules:
- You cannot leave an anonymous comment and win.
- You must live in the contiguous United States.
So, if you can meet those simple requirements, you have a chance to win! I'm having the drawing at 5 p.m. EST on February, 12th. Any comments posted after that time will not be eligible to win. The drawing will be entirely random and the winning entrant will be picked by a computer program. I will announce the winner after the drawing and contact the winner so that they can provide me with their mailing address. Only comments on this blog are accepted as entrants (The comment has to be on this blog, not on another site with a link to this blog post).
Also, one last thing, I reserve the right to remove any derogatory comments. I want this to be a fun event!
Good luck!
NOTE: You will have to create a Blogger account or a Google+ account to leave a comment, if you don't already have one.

I'll comment but I don't think I qualify since I work there too and can just pick up one of my own :) I do enjoy reading your posts though!

Hey, Dan! Yeah, I should have said "No one that works at KSC is eligible", huh? ;-)
I'm glad you're enjoying the blog. I'm trying to post at least one thing every day.
