"As we get ready to launch this historic Mars mission, we want everyone to share in this journey of exploration," said Thomas Zurbuchen, Associate Administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate (SMD) in Washington, DC.
"It's an exciting time for Nasa, as we embark on this voyage to answer profound questions about our neighbouring planet, and even the origins of life itself," he added.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California would use an electron beam to stencil the submitted names onto a silicon chip.
The chip (or chips) will ride on the rover under a glass cover.
More than two million names flew on Nasa's InSight mission to Mars, giving each "flyer" nearly 500 million frequent flyer kms.
The last date to submit your name is September 30.
