Google offers prize to any company to put mining bot on Luna
[quote]Space exploration has long been about reaching far off destinations but now there is a race to exploit new frontiers by mining their minerals.
Google has offered a $20m grand prize to the first privately-funded company to land a robot on the moon and explore the surface by moving at least 500 metres and send high definition video back to Earth by 2015. [/quote]
I think it's fair to say Google is working for the future rather than for profit (But yes im aware they profit from this somehow) but it makes a change to people talking about doing something like this.
What do you think about this? Could this jump start moon mining and possible bases on the moon?

So if I throw a computer up there that plays minecraft do I win

2 RisposteGoogle, they do what they must because they can

This is why I like Google. They want to push things forward.

Modificato da HurtfulTurkey: 3/8/2013 3:53:21 AMI'd explore that. [spoiler] Flud: It's a softcore porn actress that looks like her. This may be either good or bad news to you. Mods: Like I said...[i]technically[/i] I just posted porn, but [i]not really[/i]...and the hosting site's totally innocent. [/spoiler]

Anything to start another space race. Need more SCIENCE.

1 RispondiHaha, wouldn't it cost more to land a mining device on the Moon then what Google is offering for a prize?
-
When they start offering $20,000,000,000.00 to anyone to begin mining the moon I'll give it a shot.
-
Im already halfway there.
