Google Lunar X-Prize

Google wants to throw $30 Million at anyone who can land a 90% privately funded robot on the moon and take images. It's called the Google Lunar X-Prize.

I am proud to announce that I will be taking part. At the moment my assistant morph-droid, which isn't working properly, my Apple based Ai and I are working on the initial designs. We currently have some chop sticks, recycled tin foil, a few old batteries, a lighter and a box of matches as building material. Donations are welcome - please get in touch.

In addition to this Obsidian, Ted and Catherine (characters in my novel) will all be waiting there to welcome the winner(s).

I just love the video of the other contenders: Odyssey Moon.
