The Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) mission aims to explore the South Pole of the Moon with the aim of detecting the presence of solid water. Given the purpose of this mission, VIPER would naturally be considered one of NASA's most interesting missions this year, but the space agency decided to create a special initiative.

If you are interested in submitting your name to VIPER, you will have to go to page created for this purpose by NASA, enter your name and zip code and you will receive a virtual ticket confirming your ‘trip’ to the Moon.
"VIPER represents the first resource mapping mission on another celestial body that will deepen our understanding of how water ice and other volatile materials are distributed across the Moon, their cosmic origins, and what has kept them preserved in the lunar soil for thousands of years. of millions of years", can be read on the NASA.
