Want to win a copy of Packing for Mars?
![]() |
Today, we brought you an interview with one of our favorite authors, Mary Roach, author of Packing for Mars. Now, you can win a copy of that book.
So how can you win Packing for Mars? It’s simple – just convince us why you should win.
How you convince us is entirely up to you. Write a persuasive argument (or a poem or limerick or whatever you think will win us over), take photos of yourself dressed as an astronaut (or a sexy astronaut, if you are into that sort of thing), put together a YouTube video or write us a song. We are looking for creativity, so have fun with it.
The top three entries will win a copy of Packing for Mars. You can either leave your entry in the comments below or email it to murphyslaw@hobotrashcan.com. We will announce the winners next week.
The deadline to enter is Tuesday, September 28.
I was devastated the day I found out I was too old for space camp.

I I have two little boys, one of whom is obsessed with space men. Right now they are too little to care, but soon they are going to have all kinds of questions about space travel, and I would love to have an in-depth-yet-eccentric knowledge of the subject, to convince them that their old mom is actually super-cool!
