Moon 2.0: Join the Revolution

The Google Lunar X PRIZE seeks to create a global private race to the Moon that excites and involves people around the world and, accelerates space exploration for the benefit of all humanity. The use of space has dramatically enhanced the quality of life and may ultimately lead to solutions to some of the most pressing environmental problems that we face on earth -- energy independence and climate change.

Breaking news!

90% of youtube users are retarded.

Great job on the prize guys, good to have hope for the future.

Revolution through a fair and educated competition...

That's not what is said. I meant the purpose of sending a robot to the moon isn't to gain a profit, your going to loss money in the process.

[PoofDuddy]

So if I design and build it, Xprize is gonna get me an open account with a fuel supplier?

[MrWannabeprogrammer]

Its not just about making a profit for must people.

I that Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince narrating?

[PoofDuddy]

Who's footing the fuel bill for this challenge, the participants themselves? Nobody's going to spend 180 million in fuel and R n D just to make Mack 30 mil this is retardeds.

[Bilal Fares]

Awesome!

@slackeriii2 actually, the smaller the amount the greater will be the chance of innovation that will drive down costs of such a program. It could ensure efficiency (cheaper) and thus a more sustainable re-landing for follow up missions

they probably should've thrown the money they used for this video into the pot while they were at it, but I'm a little more optimistic: if this xprize pans out in the near future, say five years, there's a decent chance people will give up on NASA and we can finally scrap the damn thing. That would be something :D
