People interested in sending a message into space are being given the chance by social networking site Bebo. A Message From Earth has been designed to allow people to send personal messages and pictures to the nearest planet outside our solar system which could support life.
People can send in their messages, with the 500 best being decided by a web vote which runs until September 30.
They will be broadcast on October 9 by the National Space Agency of Ukraine, via its giant RT-70 radar telescope. The messages, travelling at light speed, will pass the moon within 1.7 secs and leave the solar system within seven hours.
