The Canadian Space Agency asked people around the world to pick from the semi-finalist names for the moon rover, which will launch no earlier than 2026. You can take part in the contest here, through Dec. 20.

The rover is part of a planned network of Canadian moon missions. Canada is partnering with NASA on the U.S. space agency's Artemis program, which aims to put astronauts on the moon later in the decade. CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen was selected in 2023 for Artemis 2, a four-astronaut mission expected to circle the moon no earlier than next year in preparation for landing missions.
