The April 6 Youth Movement on Thursday entered President Mohamed Morsy into an Internet contest to win a trip to space, organized by Axe Cosmetics company.

Under the so-called Popular Campaign to send Morsy to Outer Space, the movement said Morsy stands a chance to go to the moon, where he might find more tolerant people to rule. It urged people to vote for him by visiting the president's profile on the competition website.

The president has so far received more than 2,900 votes, putting him in third place.

The winner of the contest will go to the Global Space Camp in Orlando, Florida, to undergo tests that would be filmed live.
